Hunt’s® Inspires Consumers to Enjoy Garden Fresh Flavor All Year Round

Hunt’s® Hosts 1,000 Backyard Garden Fresh Parties™ With Help from Celebrity Chef George Duran
Last Saturday, Hunt’s® invited consumers to create their own festive, alfresco-inspired gatherings for friends and family that captured the taste and experience of the garden year-round with the Hunt’s Backyard Garden Fresh House Party™.
Dynamic celebrity chef George Duran continued his “Crash Kitchen Tour” when he was a welcome party crasher in two lucky hostesses’ homes. Kim Creed and Krista Fragapone were selected among 1,000 hosts nationwide for their passion for cooking, Hunt’s and Duran - who worked with each of them to prepare one of his garden-inspired dishes featuring Hunt’s tomatoes for their party guests.
Nearly 10,000 consumers applied to be among the 1,000 House Party hostesses nationwide.
“George Duran is one of my favorite Food Network personalities, and it was such a treat to have him in my house – and in my kitchen,” said Kim Creed of Long Island. “I am so grateful to Hunt’s for offering such a wonderful experience, a wide variety of new recipes to try and arranging for George to join my party.”
Duran added, “I had a great time visiting with Kim and Krista and their friends and family. Both ladies are fantastic cooks and wonderful hostesses.”
All the hostesses received help from Hunt’s and Duran to create a selection of crowd-pleasing dishes that celebrate seasonal, garden-inspired flavors, in the form of a generous party pack with garden party delights for their guests and items that ensured an extraordinary gathering.
