ST. LOUIS — Nothing says springtime quite like an outdoor picnic.
That’s why the Tower Grove Park Foundation is partnering with Butler’s Pantry to kick off Picnic in the Park once again.
Every Thursday starting April 22 through May 27, friends and families can enjoy a picnic box made by Butler’s Pantry in the historic Tower Grove Park.
Each picnic box will have an appetizer, salad, entrée and dessert for a total of $30. Water, soft drinks, cocktails, and beer are also available for purchase.
For every picnic box purchased, Butler’s Pantry will donate $5 to Tower Grove Park Foundation. On GiveSTL Day, May 6, Butler’s Pantry will donate an additional $5 for those who show a donation receipt to the Tower Grove Park GiveSTL Day fund. Those individuals will also receive one free Schlafly Park Lager donated by Schlafly Beer to go with their picnic meal.
Picnic boxes should be pre-ordered online by 10 a.m. every Wednesday and picked up at Tower Grove Park on Thursdays from 4:30-6:30 P.M. On May 6, there will be a limited quantity of picnic boxes available for purchase onsite at the pop-up picnic location near the pond loop, next to the Fountain Pond & Ruins.

The previous Picnic in the Park event took place last September.
“After a year like no other, Picnic in the Park was one of the ways we were able to create a sense of togetherness and community during a time when we couldn’t gather in traditional ways,” said Bridget Bitza, Vice President of Sales & Catering at Butler’s Pantry. “The Tower Grove Park community gave us a warm welcome last year and we are happy to come back and provide the same safe, culinary experience for everyone to enjoy while reconnecting with friends and family among the beautiful landscape of Tower Grove Park.”
