Preparation
This summer, we’re looking forward to spending time outside—going on hikes, soaking up some sun at the beach, and eating any meal we can outside. From backyard barbecues to picnics in the park, there’s something extra special about gathering with family and friends and sharing a bite to eat in the great outdoors.
What’s not so great is bugs, animals, and outdoor debris getting into your feast. Thankfully, there’s a simple solution to keeping pests at bay without having to constantly swat them away: food covers. The food covers highlighted here serve a functional purpose while also contributing to the overall aesthetic of your outdoor dining spread. From fancy glass cloches that turn anything you put underneath them into a stunning centerpiece to vintage-inspired mesh domes and lightweight food tents, food covers come in a variety of designs and at a range of price points. Here are our favorite options.
