Family Food Fest - Sunday, May 21 11am-2pm at Lincoln Elementary School, is a free community-based event put on by REAP Food Group that brings together students, parents, and community members to explore Farm to School! At Family Food Fest, kids will have the opportunity to partake in fun farm to school games, delicious local food samples, creative art projects, garden exploration, and physical activity challenges! Families will be able to meet local farmers, taste locally-grown produce, engage with community groups, and experience student dance performances. Activities will be fun, educational, and free for all ages.
We currently have 30 local businesses and organizations signed up as exhibitors who will be facilitating children-focused activities.  Some activities include; making smoothies with a bike-powered blender, planting herbs and flowers that can be brought home, cooking demonstrations and many art projects.  In addition, there will be a few food carts there selling affordable food and the first 200 attendents get a voucher for a free meal.

This free festival would be a great opportunity for Lake Edge Neighborhood children and residents to come engage in healthy, outdoor fun while growing their understanding of sustainable agriculture and farm to school practices.  

Please contact Ross Cohen rcohen@reapfoodgroup.org for more information.

The Family Food Fest will be held rain or shine.
