Drive-thru kumla dinner to tempt appetites in Newark

Kumla

Fern Dell Historic Association’s annual kumla dinner will take place Saturday, Feb. 19. Because of the pandemic, this year’s dinner will be a drive-thru event.

Serving begins at 3 p.m. at the Newark Firehouse, 101 E. Main St., and will continue until the food is sold out. The dinner will feature the traditional lineup of ham, kumla dumplings and applesauce. The cost is $13. Orders will be taken when you pull up to the firehouse, and then delivered to your car. No advance tickets will be needed.

This annual event is the cornerstone of Fern Dell’s fundraising. Fern Dell Historic Association supports four historic sites in Newark.
