The Celebration of Food Festival will be 11 a.m.-4 p.m., Sun., May 19, at the Lynnwood Convention Center.

Food Revolution Snohomish County, a movement aimed at encouraging growing, cooking, preserving, and eating real healthy food, brings a unique community event to Snohomish County.

“This event brings together people who are passionate about delicious, local, wholesome food,” said organizer Chris Hudyma. “Farmers, growers, culinary professionals, youth, students, and business owners offer activities to inspire the enjoyment of real food.”

The Celebration of Food Festival is sponsored by Central Market, City of Lynnwood, Edmonds College, PCC, Sno-Isle Food Co-op, Swedish Edmonds, and Whole Foods Market Lynnwood.

This event showcases how to grow, where to purchase, and how to prepare/preserve real food. The event is again looking for 50-plus vendors representing farming, edible plant production, food preparation, and farmers markets. Food vendors’ products have to meet one or more of the following categories: sustainable, local, organic, and/or wholesome.
