It’s a common trope for any host. You stay busy making sure everything goes to plan, and before you know it, guests are arriving and the rest of your event flashes by in the blink of a selfie. Here are a few easy ways you can honor those you love, celebrate throughout the month, and enjoy being the life of the party instead of stressing behind the scenes:

Graduation

Whether it’s Pre-K, elementary, high school, or college, celebrate every milestone moment with delicious bites and skip the hours in your kitchen. Work with a Central Market Catering Specialist to secure stunning party platters, passed hors d’oeuvres, and all-out elaborate spreads. All you have to do is enjoy every shrimp-filled, prosciutto-wrapped bite.

Teachers’ Day – May 5

Pamper our hardworking educators with treats that give them the moments of much-needed rest, relaxation, and sweetness they deserve during the final stretch of the school year. Order gift baskets full of treats like artisan chocolates, snacks from around the globe, freshly baked cookies, scratch-baked scones and muffins, aged cheeses, and gourmet graze boards.

Mother’s Day & Día de las Madres – May 10

Honoring the moms in your life can be as easy as keeping her in mind when you’re putting together your shopping list. Brighten her day with hand-tied bouquets and expertly designed custom floral arrangements, and make sure to include ingredients for eggs Benedict, and occasion-worthy A5 Japanese Wagyu steaks and cold-water lobster tails for a special surf-and-turf dinner.

For the easiest start to the day, pick up Mother’s Day brunch kits that include easy heat-and-eat breakfast casseroles, fresh fruit, and oven-ready French croissants. Put together a playlist of her favorite songs and set up a mimosa bar with bottles of fresh cold-pressed juices to begin the day off with good vibes and a celebratory toast.

End the day on a sweet note by presenting her with a new Rosé discovery that you can try together, heart-shaped macarons, strawberries dipped in imported European chocolate, and a decorated Mother’s Day raspberry cake.

Memorial Day – May 25

This is the day you dreamt about all winter. Whether you’re spending the day by the water, by the grill, or simply enjoying the weather with an al fresco meal, picnic-friendly sides are a must. Get to the fun even faster by picking up ready-made dips, pasta salads, fresh green salads, and buttery brioche buns for the hamburgers and hot dogs on the menu. Don’t forget the craft beers and a selection of wines from around the world to please every party-goers palate.

May is a month full of transitions and change, when we say goodbye to the school year and hello to new beginnings and summer. Take time to enjoy all those celebrations by being present. With all the amazing specialty offerings at Central Market, you never have to do it all yourself.

The organizers are looking to recruit 1,000 volunteers to help serve meals, clear tables, work as hosts/hostesses and aid in the Kid’s Zone area during the four-hour events. All businesses, civic organizations, churches and schools are encouraged to sign up at www.centralmarket.com/feastofsharing.

“We’ve had a tremendous response from our volunteer community in the past,” said Mabrie Jackson, senior director of public affairs, H-E-B/Central Market. “Every year we enjoy seeing our regulars from area businesses, churches, sorority/fraternities and schools. With the Dallas event being on a Saturday this year, we’re hoping to serve even more of our community and are looking for those extra volunteers who can give a few hours of their time this holiday season.”

Feast of Sharing returned last year after a two-year pause due to the pandemic, but even during those two years, H-E-B/Central Market was able to modify their outreach by hosting free drive-thru holiday meal pickups on the originally scheduled days. The event, which has been held in Dallas since 2006 and Fort Worth since 2011, typically serves 10-15,000 residents in each city. Feast of Sharing provides a Texas-style holiday meal paired alongside a festive celebration complete with live music, a kid’s zone and Santa and Mrs. Claus. In addition, more than 40 social service agencies are also on hand with representatives to provide information and resources.

Since 1989, Central Market’s parent company, H-E-B, has invited people to celebrate the holidays with food, music, and good cheer at its Feast of Sharing events. The free holiday feasts, which are held in more than 34 cities in Texas and Mexico, bring together family, friends, and neighbors, and provides H-E-B an opportunity to give thanks to its loyal customers, regularly serving more than 250,000 meals. In the more than three decades H-E-B has held the celebrations, more than 375,000 volunteers have helped serve nearly four million meals. This initiative is an important part of H-E-B’s Hunger Relief Program, which works year-round to prevent hunger in the more than 300 communities H-E-B serves.

Last year, H-E-B’s Hunger Relief Program donated 41 million pounds of food to families in need. Since 1982, the year the program was founded, H-E-B has donated more than 1 billion pounds of food to 5,500 non-profit organizations in Texas and Mexico.

Central Market’s Feast of Sharing event is a celebration aimed at bringing the community together and is also the company’s culmination of a year-round commitment to fighting hunger throughout Texas.
