The Food Initiatives Group (FIG) invites you to a Local Foods Dinner at 7 pm on August 9, 2008, located at Sullivan Taylor Coffee House/The Wine Sellers/Taylor Hall (S. Randolph, E. Side of Square). The evening will showcase vegetable, fruit, dairy, meat, and grain products from the region with a gourmet five-course feast that will tantalize your taste buds.

The event is a fundraiser for the Food Initiatives Group, a grassroots non-profit group advocating for the resurgence of a local food culture that provides every person access to sustainably produced, nutritious food. Proceeds from the dinner will be used to facilitate use of the Link card--a debit card for food assistance--at the Macomb Farmer's Market.

Tickets are $30 each and can be purchased at New Copperfield's Book Service, a local independent bookstore located at 120 N. Side of Square (309-837-3052). Seating is limited. Purchase of tickets in advance is recommended. For more information, visit our website: www.macombfig.org or contact Vajo Necak at 309-837-2338 or vajonecak@yahoo.com
