GreenTown will host supper Saturday, May 2 at 6:30 as part of the weekend of events observing the second anniversary of the tornado. (See entry from April 5, below, for itinerary.) Guests at our First Annual Green Initiative Awards banquet will be treated to a meal made possible by: Local Burger, a Lawrence, Kansas organic/sustainable/local foods eatery owned by Hilary Brown; Good Natured Family Farms, a consortium of over 100 family farms headed up by Diana Endicott; New Grass Bison Company, a sustainable food production and distribution company founded by Jeff Adair in 2001; and Anita Friesen, local Greensburg caterer extraordinaire.

We are delighted to be able treat our diners to this meal of healthy foods that will come to us from family farms in our neck of the woods. It feels good knowing where our food comes from and that it was raised in a sustainable manner. To read more about the philosophy behind the local foods in the words of our sponsors, we encourage you to visit their websites. Your mouth will be watering for down-home cooking.
