The Great Tastes of Tailgating Benefit

Oak Street Local Market
This Thursday, September 2 5:30 - 7:30


Join us for this fun event! Here's your chance to sample our tastiest local treats; they're all perfect for game-day tailgating parties or for hanging out at home with the TV tuned in and remote in hand. Meet the people behind these local goodies, enjoy a beverage, including Jones Valley Urban Farm's 'Bicycle Blender' making frosty mojitos, and taste all of the goodies you've been coveting. Listen to blue-grass music by Charlie Hunter, and enjoy Oak Street Local Market on a cool (!) summer evening.

Our tasty evening benefits Jones Valley Urban Farm's Seed to Plate Scholarship Program. This wonderful program allows school children to visit the farm, experience hands-on food production, and learn the yummy benefits of eating local, home-grown, fresh produce. The cost is $8 per student to participate, and many city schools lack sufficient funds. A suggested donation of $10 for our evening of fun will help children know the satisfaction, achievement, and joy of locally produced food.
