We are so proud to be supporting ethnic-owned businesses and featuring Fisher Brewery. Thank you for supporting all of us last year in person. Food vendors: Argentina's Best Empanadas, Namash Swahili Cuisine, Table 22, Jamaica's Kitchen, Shiba Boba, Delicius, Prime Corn, Olive's Oasis, Drunken Kitchen, Pioneer Hand Pies, and Fisher Brewery."

Aldine's Urban Farm Report, featuring Shirley Barnes and Alyssa DeHart of TURN Community Services. A group of parents founded the nonprofit in 1973 to improve program services for adult children with intellectual and developmental disabilities. TURN began by opening residential programs in Ogden and Bountiful. Individuals with disabilities could live in a traditional home setting, participate in community activities—including gardening—and have an integrated, more independent social interaction experience.
