The Eat Local & Organic Expo is an annual event held in spring to kick off farmers market season and promote local and organic farmers, ranchers, and artisans who are vital to our region’s local food system. The Expo began in 1988 and was led by a group of food advocates and local and organic farmers & ranchers who formed the KC Food Circle™.
