With the holidays and Winter weather – there has been less events and activities related to food, sustainability, and energy here in Cleveland. That’s about to change this week.
With the snow that we have here in Cleveland, it might seem like local food is few and far between right now (except for maybe some root vegetables or tomato sauce you might have in your freezer.)
2012 is the year of local food in Cleveland, as part of the 2019 Cleveland Sustainable initiative. This Friday there is a kickoff event organized by the City of Cleveland’s Office of Sustainability with a Local Food Fair on Friday January 20, 2012 from 11:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. at Cleveland City Hall.
The event is free and you can meet local vendors, businesses, and farmers who will be there. Samples of local food will be available and information tables will be setup.
I checked, and the exhibitor booth entry is full – so expect a full house of local food providers.
