Where: 740 Seventh Street East, Saint Paul
Cost: It's free!

In 2013, Urban Oasis was the winning idea in The Saint Paul Foundation's $1 million Forever Saint Paul Challenge. Today, Urban Oasis is an initiative of the Lower Phalen Creek Project, a nonprofit organization on the East Side of Saint Paul.

Urban Oasis is kicking off their efforts to create all sorts of ways you can feed your family and support our local food system with its launch event, the Urban Oasis Food Fest, a community food festival. And you're invited!

The event will celebrate the growing East Side food scene and say "thank you" for making Urban Oasis a reality. There will be canning demonstrations, menu discussions and taste tests of delicious, locally sourced food from Urban Oasis and East Side vendors.

Sign up for the Urban Oasis e-newsletter to find out more about the classes, catering, meal services and food products Urban Oasis is developing to create a healthy, resilient and prosperous community.
