SUMMARY:4th Annual Faces of Farming Gala
DESCRIPTION:Central Oregon Locavore presents:\nInnovation in Farming\n4th Annual Faces of Farming Gala\, Silent Auction and Farm to Table Feast\nDo you love fresh\, nourishing food and the hard-working souls who make it possible? \nJoin Central Oregon Locavore on Friday\, May 3rd\, at The Tetherow Resort Event Pavilion for an evening of artful and delicious surprise\, designed to honor the hardy and dedicated people who grow and raise our food in Central Oregon. \nThis event will include a photograph narrative of our local farmers and ranchers\, a silent auction\, local wine\, beer and cocktails\, and an extensive menu showcasing the bounty of local farms and ranches brought to you by Chef Miguel and the culinary team at Tetherow.  \nThis years theme is Innovation in Farming. As casually observed by many\, and truly noticed by few\, farmers are the ultimate innovators. From fixing broken machinery\, to crafting complex security systems for curious livestock\, to gently tricking plants to a higher yield\, an extra month of production\, or an early germination\, farmers and ranchers are the ultimate craftsman. It takes a certain type of ingenuity\, or mad genius\, to contend with nature. And farmers have just that type of genius it takes. After all\, necessity is the mother of creation. Faces of Farming serves to connect those passionate about our sustainability\, cultivates strong relationships and celebrates the potential in all of us.

SUMMARY:UP North Loop Talks
DESCRIPTION:Imagine walking out your front door one day in May and not coming back until early November\, covering more than 2\,600 miles on foot between those two days. \nThat’s just what Ras and Kathy Vaughn did last year when they embarked on a journey through the Pacific Northwest\, stitching together portions of several long trails in order to create one massive loop hike. \nRas and Kathy – also known as Team UltraPedestrian – were the first people to ground-truth a possible cross-country connection between the Idaho Centennial Trail and the Oregon Desert Trail\, a route which also includes extensive cross-country travel. With a bit of shimmying through canyons and a few twists and turns\, they made it work. \nThis adventurous thru-hiking duo will be presenting near you soon: \nUP North Loop Talks \n\nApril 11\, 7 p.m. | Footzone\, Bend\, OR\nApril 24\, 7 p.m. | Mountain Supply\, Bend\, OR\nMay 7\, 6 p.m. | Deschutes Public Library\, Downtown Bend\, OR
