WHY YOU'LL LOVE THEM Unlike other community experiences that can demand your constant attention—Are there enough potholders for the potluck dishes? How many plates do we need? etc.—once the grazing table is set up, you're all set! Guests can casually nosh on bites throughout the event, and you can keep your focus on enjoying the gathering, not making room for all the potluck dishes. Plus, cleanup is a breeze. D-I-Y OR D-I-WHY? Depending on your hosting style, you could scope out your local farmers' market and pick up your favorite bites and assemble a grazing table yourself. Or, if you prefer, you can hire a catering company or a company that specializes in grazing tables to set it up for you. Whether you set it up yourself or call in the experts, grazing tables are the perfect way to enjoy the "fruits" of your labor! WHY WE LOVE THEM We love a good gathering! But, we don't love inaccessible food created with little-to-no thought of how the dish should be eaten. We're looking at you, strawberry cheesecake layered in a shot glass and served with a spoon too large to fit into said shot glass. With grazing tables, you get super-accessible food, which means guests spend less time trying to figure out how to eat and more time enjoying your event.
