The Salt Lake Picnic Society wants you to go to the park, sit on a blanket, and eat good food with your friends. They’re also hosting a public picnic in a couple of weeks, and you’re invited.
The founders said the society began as a group of friends in the food industry, who held picnics on Mondays and Tuesdays — which, for people who work in bars and restaurants, is the weekend.
The society’s last picnic, in Jordan Park, happened in the fall of 2019. After Pugh moved to Texas and everything shut down during the pandemic, the society went dormant, but its first public event in two years will happen in late June. Panzanella salad, part of a spread put out by McKenzie Wallace and Griffen Nebeker's Salt Lake Picnic Society in Salt Lake City on Thursday, June 9, 2022.
They say they also want to keep their events low-key and spontaneous, so announcements of picnics will happen via Instagram a day or two before gatherings. Partly that’s a way to keep events from getting too crowded, Wallace said. “But we also want to maintain the spontaneity, and have people be like, ‘When’s the next picnic?’”
