30th Anniversary Garden Brunch

Vere Harmsworth, Lisa Vanderpump, Governor of Maryland Wes Moore, Gayle King and Sean Walsh

This year marked the 30th anniversary of the White House Correspondents’ Garden Brunch! 

The Garden Brunch is an annual gathering of leaders in government, politics, media, business, and entertainment during the Correspondents’ Weekend that uses its power and purpose to honor an important cause. 

The first Garden Brunch took place in Tammy Haddad’s backyard 30 years ago, ahead of the 1993 White House Correspondents’ Association dinner.

The #GardenBrunch honors the freedom of the press and highlights the important work of veterans and military family organizations, a tradition that continues this year as we celebrate freedom and democracy around the world.

Over the years, Garden Brunch honorees have included:  Dog Tag Bakery, a disabled veterans entrepreneurship program, NS2 Serves, a veterans hiring program, Blue Star Families, a military family support organization, the Bob Woodruff Foundation, supporting our nation’s injured service members, veterans, and their families, CURE Epilepsy, and more. Special thanks to Compass Coffee and Georgetown Cupcakes for always supporting our veterans.
