LSP will provide the pork, beans and Pride of Main Street ice cream, which will be served at 5:30 p.m. Picnickers are encouraged to bring their own garden vegetables to share. The suggested donation for this event is $10. To RSVP for the meal, contact LSP’s Montevideo office by Aug. 14 at 320-269-2105 or lspwest@landstewardshipproject.org.

This event will feature music, storytelling and a silent auction, as well as farmers’ and artists’ markets.
