The Taste of Eden Prairie is FEPS’ signature fundraising event. We are grateful for the broad-based local support we receive every year from local restaurants, businesses, and corporate and personal financial sponsors. Taste would not be possible without the generosity of our community.
Funds raised from the Taste of Eden Prairie are used to further FEPS' mission to support and enhance the legacy of excellence in Eden Prairie public schools. Specifically, money from Taste is used to fund innovative teaching grants given to teachers and staff for programs that will have a direct and measurable impact on student learning.
