“A Sweet Taste of Tifton” 12th annual chocolate tasting event returns to support adult literacy

TIFTON, Ga. – A delicious night out for a meaningful cause is coming to Tifton next week. The Literacy Volunteers of Tifton-Tift County are hosting their 12th annual fundraiser, newly reimagined as “A Sweet Taste of Tifton,” on Tuesday, February 10.

The event runs from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the Paulk Vineyards Tifton Tasting Room, located at 1013 Ridge Avenue North.
