Experience Local, Sustainable Food at this Heifer's Event

Join Heifer on Saturday evening, October 16, for a dinner of locally grown foods, followed by a panel discussion on the state of food in Arkansas. The 100 Mile Meal is an opportunity to learn about the issues facing Arkansas as we seek to provide good food, grown in balance with the earth, for all Arkansans.
Do you know where your food comes from? Have you ever wanted to be involved in a community garden or start your own? Did you know that there are food deserts where no fresh food can be found? Register for Heifer International’s 100 Mile Meal to discover the impact of individual food choices and how communities in Arkansas are working to support local farmers and change the way we eat.
Dr. Rex Enoch, local food movement advocate and retired Manager of Adult Education for Heifer International will moderate the discussion panel. Panel members include Perry Jones, Director of the United States Country Programs for Heifer International, Jody Hardin of the Arkansas Farmers Market Association, Amber Bunker of Delta Sprouts and Dr. Margaret Harris, Assistant Professor of Health at UAMS and University of Arkansas, Division of Agriculture Cooperative Extension Service.
Tickets include a dinner of locally grown foods and the discussion. A cash bar will be available.
