Welcome to the Healthy Food Festival Website.  
You Are What You Eat!

The first ever Healthy Food Festival is scheduled for Sept. 19th, 2015, 1-7 p.m. at the Josephine County Fairgrounds. 
The festival is a celebration and a community-wide endeavor 
to value healthy food for what it does to both build healthy humans and aid in disease prevention and recovery.  Many community members have come together in 
partnership to create this special event.  
Come learn something new, enjoy good food, and have fun. 
Bring a nonperishable food item for the food bank.
