Taste the flavors of past at Poplar Heights Farm

Poplar Heights Living History Farm will host a free tasting event featuring the heirloom fruits and vegetables they’ve grown here this year. The drought has not been kind to the tomato production but constant watering has kept everything going - some even in overwhelming abundance.
Popular Heights will have all sorts of dishes to try from simple to complex and all the tasting is free. Visitors can also built a lunch sandwich for $4.00 - either a bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich or a fresh side pork, lettuce and tomato sandwich both on artisan breads. They will have cucumber lemonade to drink.

A grant has been received from the Missouri Prairie Foundation and the main prairie garden is doing well. There will be a special ribbon cutting ceremony that day with Prairie Foundation members present.
The event will be held Saturday September 8th from 11 till 2 pm with free admission and samples and sandwiches sold for 4 dollars.

Directions: go east on H Highway to UU Highway, turn north and follow the signs. For Information call 660-679-0764, email:info@poplarheightsfarm.org see www.poplarheightsfarm.org
