Whether a celebratory feast or a simple family dinner, food has the ability to bring people together and create a sense of community. This event will explore food’s power by highlighting a Learning Garden with school-led tours. Participants are also invited to hear everyday Indy residents share their food stories in a competitive format where the audience will vote on the most powerful story. Followed by a reception to mingle with storytellers and various organizations focused on healthy eating and increasing food access in the city.
Garden tours from 2:30—3pm, storytelling from 3—4pm, and reception from 4—5pm.
