Go Local Lawrence Busque Local Update

We are so pleased with the response from everyone we talk to about the Festival. What does that mean for Lawrence? Well, even more local choices.

Here is a quick recap of who will either be at the Go Local or will be offering something on their menu with local ingredients:
*Rio Bar & Grill on Appleton Street will be serving pasta samples with lots of fresh, local options
*Cafe Azteca already started with a house special of "Squash Blossom" sauce, look for more local items on their menu and live at the Go Local
*Cafe Verde will highlight their special menu at the Go Local, a special preview before they open their doors on Essex Street
*Terra Luna, also on Appleton, is working with their chef to add locals to the menu as well
That's not all, more chefs are signing on daily. This is going to be big Lawrence!

Other activities planned for the Go Local Lawrence include an edible craft table with the Merrimack Valley YMCA where families can make fun snacks and UMass Extension Nutrition Education will be playing the "Spin a Snack" game to try some new fruits and vegetables.

Live performances between 11am and 1pm hosted by Lawrence's own DraMatik and DJ Erkel will include local artists B-Luv, Bylli Crayone, El-Moises, C-Sharp, Boys R Us and Show Divine.

There will be something for everyone. You will not want to miss it!
