A Springs note in the June 29 print edition of The Star gave an incorrect date for E.A.T. in the Hidden Gardens, a benefit for the Springs Food Pantry. It will take place on July 8 from 4 to 7 p.m. at the Corbett Estate at 464 Old Stone Highway.

While touring the maze-like gardens, guests can enjoy live music, wine from Wolffer Estate Vineyard, draft beer from Springs Brewery, hors d'oeuvres from Silver Spoon Specialties (the People Choice winner at the food pantry's 2023 Chili Chowdown), and mocktails by Cocktails & Dreams.

The adjacent grounds of the Leiber Collection will also be open, although the museum itself will be closed.

Advance tickets are $150 from springsfoodpantry.com, $175 at the door. All proceeds will benefit the food pantry's mission to feed community members in need.

The Sweet Smell of Nostalgia at Sagaponack General

Stepping into the new Sagaponack General Store, which reopened yesterday after being closed since 2020, is a sweet experience, and not just because there’s a soft-serve ice cream station on the left and what promises to be the biggest penny candy selection on the South Fork on your right, but because it’s like seeing an old friend who, after some struggle, made it big. Really, really big.
