Discover the “Real“ Food Community Around You
A “REAL” FOOD FAIR
Monday, September 6, 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM
Discover the "real" food community right around you Many like-minded people are concerned about the quality, cost and healthfulness of the foods we eat today. Join us on Labor Day for a real food potluck, network with your peers (growers, consumers, families), and get answers to questions as well as solutions to problems and discover tactics and strategies for getting to better food. Local food expert and long-time ARE member and presenter Robin Migalla will lead two discussions. Several area growers will be available to talk with, there will be relevant DVDs to watch, and a number of other activities to help you discover a next step or two in your engagement with your food.
