A lot going on at D’Esopo’s this week!
We had a great turn out from the food drive and thank you to all who donated. The food was spread throughout all of the food banks here in East Hartford.
We also had wreaths delivered that we donate to local buildings along with being displayed on our building.
‘Tis the season!

Our food drive ends today at 4 pm but as we are in the season of giving, we are having a toy collection until December 3 for the CT National Guard’s Operation Elf.

Heaven has gained a gentlemen’s gentleman. We are sad to hear the news about of one of our colleagues, Robert “Bob” O’Dea. More than a colleague, he was a dear friend to us all here at D’Esopo’s.
We’re left with a lot of memories that we will cherish forever.
Rest in peace. 🪽

Reminder! Our food drive is THIS WEEK! We decided to have a 3-day long food drive this year. Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday from 12-4pm we will be collecting food for our local food banks.
Thanks for supporting and looking forward to seeing you.
