FARM MEET 2010


This Tuesday (April 20) we are having a great event at the Cultural Center here in Newberg from 6-9pm. It's a follow up event to the FOOD MEET 2010 which had 23 tables (farmers, restaurants, organizations) and over 150 people who came to the event. Check out this COOL VIDEO on the Food Meet that was posted on YAMHILL TV.

This event is going to be even bigger with 30 vendors and over a dozen different presentations/demonstrations you can choose from addressing the following questions:
1. WHY get local food?
2. How to BUY local food?
3. How to GROW local food?
4. How to COOK local food?
5. How to PRESERVE local food?
6. How to COMPOST local food?
7. How to CELEBRATE local food?

There will be a variety of local music and lots of GOOD FOOD to sample or buy. Food brings people together. Local food is not only delicious--it helps our local economy, our communal health, our local justice, our environment. It's all good. So come check out the NEWLY remodeled Cultural Center (near the Newberg Library). Lots of great things are brewing in Newberg--come be part of the GOOD FOOD MOVEMENT!
