In addition to vendors, live music, food trucks and activities for kids, the event includes a diverse lineup of workshops, like “Backyard Biodiversity” with Melinda Voss of the Cincinnati Zoo and gut-health-focused “Fun Food Fermentation.” Other topics touch on herb cultivation, pest management and raising backyard chickens.
