Want to be an Exhibitor in 2009? This year's Festival will again be held in conjunction with the Living Green Expo, a two-day event that provides Minnesotans with information, ideas, resources, products and motivation to live more sustainably. During the past eight years, the Community Food and Farm Festival has evolved into one of the region's most popular venues for meeting farmers who are direct marketing various kinds of food. Farmers will be on hand to answer questions about the sustainable production methods they use to produce food that is safe and good for the environment. Learn about joining a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) farm or buying food directly through various other means, as well as what products are within driving distance of the metro area (meats, vegetables, dairy products, grains and more). Consumers can sample various items and sign up to purchase sustainably raised food right on the spot. But the Living Green Expo isn't just about food. Information and products for clean transportation, home energy efficiency, home remodeling, yard and garden care, and other purposes will be exhibited. Music, children's activities, educational forums and food vendors will be a part of the Expo this year. For more information about the Community Food and Farm Festival, contact the Land Stewardship Project's White Bear Lake office at 651-653-0618. Get involved in the Food and Farm Festival!
