Hi Neighbors!
We live down the street and got involved with Trinity when we moved to Nashville in 2022 (Chris is a native!). Our days are filled with a mix of coffee brewing (Chris's domain), dinner duty (Liz's specialty), and, in between, staying active with our three-year-old son Murphy — who’s super excited to become a big brother in June.
I (Liz) began cooking this quarterly community meal for neighbors at TCC as a way to bring folks together. It’s a meaningful opportunity for me to share my joy of cooking and connect with neighbors and friends over a fun meal.
I’m grateful to have two stellar sous chefs. Chris is always looking for an excuse to smoke some meat, and Murphy, of course, is the official dessert prepper—always ready to lick the icing bowl clean!
I (Chris) joined the TCC board in 2025 because I’m passionate about building a community at TCC that is welcoming and fosters meaningful connections across all parts of society.
We support TCC with our time, talents, and gifts because we believe a strong local community is the foundation for a just society.
We’re inviting you to:
Join us for dinner on May 6! We’re cooking up a pineapple themed meal for everyone.
Donate to support TCC: your donations helps TCC share meals, connect neighbors to housing & other vital resources, host events, and more
See you at dinner soon!
Presented by City Cast Nashville
Huge thank you to City Cast Nashville for sponsoring this Spring’s Big Community Meal!
Check out the City Cast Nashville podcast and subscribe to their newsletter! More info at https://nashville.citycast.fm/.
Join the City Cast Nashville team every weekday morning as we bring you the day's can't-miss conversation about life in Music City. With the help of local journalists, artists, activists, experts, and everyday residents, we explore this promising, frustrating, still-sorta-small town, where old bumps up against new, natives adapt to transplants, and everybody struggles to navigate the Binge Drinking Tourism Industrial Complex that threatens to consume us all. Alongside our daily newsletter, Hey Nashville, City Cast Nashville covers the news and culture of our endlessly growing city from every perspective we can find — including yours. It’s like a backyard barbecue and the whole town’s invited, so whether you’ve lived here for a blink or a lifetime, we hope you’ll pull up a lawn chair and sit a while. Get in touch with us at nashville@citycast.fm.
