Sustainable Foods Fair for the Four Corners
Networking - Marketplace - Tribute
October 18, 2003
La Posada Hotel, Winslow, Arizona
We invite you to join us for a special event celebrating sustainable
food and agriculture efforts at historic La Posada in Winslow, Arizona
on October 18th. Although most people do not think “agriculture” when
they think of the Painted Desert, Grand Canyon country, and the Four
Corners states, our region has the longest continuous history with the
most diverse set of heirloom crops and rare breeds of any existing
American agricultural tradition. At this event, you will meet Native
American, Hispanic, and Anglo farmers who are not only culture
bearers of these time-tried traditions; you will taste their products
and hear their stories.
