Meet and eat at The Food Project

The Food Project invites everyone to its annual Farm Lunch on Wednesday, July 12 at the intersection of Baker Bridge Road and Route 126. Learn informally about TFP’s mission and programming, including through conversations with teenage members of Root Crew, professional farmers, and regional directors. Arrive by noon for a walking tour of the farm. A complimentary buffet lunch including vegetarian options featuring items from the farm will be provided at 12:30 p.m. as everyone gathers at picnic tables or under the pavilion. While philanthropic support of The Food Project is always welcomed, there is no expectation of a donation associated with these community building events. Due to limited capacity, RSVP is required; email jsoto@thefoodproject.org.

Participants are encouraged to sign up for all three sessions. Registration required as space is limited; email dshaver@minlib.net to register. Made possible by the Friends of the Lincoln Library.

Morris dancers coming to Lincoln

The American Traveling Morrice brings the Morris dance (an English country tradition with roots in medieval street theater) to a new geographical region each summer. The dancers, with small bells strapped to their legs, leap through complex figures accompanied by the music of the accordion, fiddle, or the ancient pipe and tabor. They will appear twice in Lincoln on Monday, July 24: at the deCordova Sculpture Park at 3:15 p.m. and in South Lincoln behind Donelan’s at 5:30 p.m. They will also appear that week in Sudbury, Concord, Maynard and other area towns; click here for the full schedule.
