Chef Evan Hennessey’s two children, Emma and Kaden, now in seventh and fourth grades, are growing up learning skills they’ll rely on throughout their lives In addition to honing their math, reading and social studies knowledge at Seacoast Charter School in Dover.
Their dad has taught them to cook, which will certainly come in handy in the decades to come. While the rest of their friends eat ramen from a Styrofoam cup (if there even is Styrofoam by then), they can whip up some fresh pasta. And while for some a big camping trip means boxed mac and cheese and trail mix, these kids will be able to whip up something warm and delicious.
When it comes to braving the winter chill, hardy New Englanders are up for the challenge. However, while outdoor dining at Seacoast restaurants had diners happily enjoying delicious drinks and dishes long into fall, there was a point at which it just became a bit too frosty for servers and diners alike.
The majority of Seacoast restaurants remain open this winter as the coronavirus pandemic drags on, whether it’s for indoor dining or takeout only. In early December, though, came a series of announcements from some restaurants they were closing until spring, “hibernating” until outdoor dining can open once again.

During that Gather event, the co-founders of the Alliance for the Greater Good presented their own event, Share the Warmth, where they distributed over 1,700 gloves, hats, mittens all things winter for those in need with the cold months sashaying in.
