America's Grow-a-Row Farm to Fork Dinner

America’s
Grow-a-Row (AGAR) is hosting their Farm to Fork fundraiser on Saturday, May 10,
2014 at Life Camp in Pottersville, New Jersey featuring local food artisans, a
farm fresh dinner and fine auctions. 
AGAR is delighted to be honoring Jerry Walker of Team Walker for his
work and commitment to helping impoverished youth find positive solutions to
the many obstacles they may face in their daily lives as well as for being a
partner with AGAR in feeding those in need within Jersey City. 

Congressman Leonard Lance will serve as the Keynote Speaker at Farm to Fork and
will present the flag that was flown over the United States Capitol in honor of
America's Grow-a-Row.  The goal of this event is to raise money and make a
solid investment in the future of AGAR. Proceeds will help AGAR reach
their 2014 goals of donating over 1 million pounds of farm-fresh food to
various hunger relief agencies in New Jersey while at the same time educating
people of all ages about hunger, the importance of agriculture, and healthy
eating.  AGAR thanks
the following corporate sponsors for their support of Farm to Fork:
Greenman-Pedersen, Inc., The Vein Institute of Hunterdon, ExxonMobil,
GlaxoSmithKline, PSE&G, and ShopRite of Hunterdon County.
