Three Vermont Autumn Gatherings to Host in Your Backyard with bevo
Fall in Vermont is truly a special season, and after time spent in quarantine you’re yearning for community and celebration of the glory of autumn.
Maybe you’d like to host a small party, but you’re not sure how to do it.
“Even modest gatherings in the coronavirus era will take lots of planning and effort, but seeing friends can ease anxiety in these very stressful days,” says The Washington Post.
A creative way to ease the effort? Have it catered!
While most people associate catering with large events like weddings, don’t forget that caterers like bevo are set up for success when it comes to celebrations of any size.
We can custom-create your meal for your special gathering.
Here are 3 Autumn Mini-Fests you Can Host at Your Home!
Harvest Celebration
You’ve likely done a bit more yard work this year and that brush pile is begging to be transformed into a glorious autumn bonfire. Maybe you’ve attended diligently to your garden and would love to invite your social bubble to celebrate the bountiful final fruits (and vegetables) of your labor.
Let bevo provide a special, Covid-friendly meal to treat your loved ones this autumn while you celebrate the season outside in the foliage. Light the bonfire, cozy up with chairs and flannel and delight in the flavors of the harvest!
Menu:
- Pumpkin Spice White Russian
- Spinach and Quinoa Salad with Apple
- Butternut Squash Ravioli with Sage Browned Butter
- Individual pumpkin cheesecakes
- Party Favor — Individual bags of cinnamon apple chips
State Fair Party
Are you missing the taste of the fair? The “ten best days of summer” may have been cancelled this year, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get your corn-dog fix. Wouldn’t some comfort food taste good right about now?
Allow bevo to cater a fun-for-all small gathering in your yard. You provide the yard games, barnyard petting zoo (the family goat will suffice), and some atmospheric carnival lighting. We will provide your deep-fried favorites, with a professional twist!
Menu:
- Spiked Mulled Cider
- Gourmet Corn Dogs
- Italian Sausage Subs
- Deep fried cookies
- Mini single-serving pies

Drive-In Dinner Theater
Vermonters have rolled up to quite a few events in their vehicles this Covid season! From socially-distant concerts to ‘rona-friendly political rallies, we’ve been sitting on our cars a lot this year. Why not make another unique memory atop the family van with a DIY drive-in movie in your very own yard?
Grab a white sheet or project on the side of your barn and voila! Instant drive-in theater. If you really want to geek out and have a high quality cinematic experience, check out these suggestions from Popular Mechanics.
While you tinker with your projector and your family and guests settle in for a double feature, let bevo handle the food side of things! We can provide individually-boxed meals for each movie-goer.
Menu:
- Local Pumpkin Beer
- Bacon-wrapped Hot Dogs
- Gourmet Walking Tacos
- Poutine
- Apple Cider Doughnuts

Totally Worth It
If you will be having a celebration, follow CDC tips for hosting gatherings.
They recommend single-use serving options and a designated food handler for gatherings. Let bevo handle the hygiene, set up, meal preparation and clean up while you enjoy Fall 2020 with your guests. You won’t regret it!
