To bring the 2008 Harmony Festival theme to life in the Culinary Showcase we have created an experience that will make a connection between food and the earth, and will demonstrate that healthy, local, natural and organic food is good for us and for the planet. The Culinary Showcase stage will feature chef demos and expert presentations on food issues as they relate to human and planetary health. The Culinary Showcase, complimented by the always popular food Taste-A-Thon, takes place in the Kraft Hall. This natural foods attraction provides festival goers with a chance to taste and learn about the best and newest items from the natural foods industry.

The Center for the Future of Farming a local nonprofit has helped to create a wonderful food forest beside the Culinary Showcase. This demo "Food Forest" is collaboratively created on a lovely grassy area in front of the Culinary Showcase by local farmers, permaculture landscape designers, nursery owners and sustainability activists.

Harmony Festival Hospitality has been feeding the festival healthy, natural and organic food for over four years. The Harmony Festival is about learning to live better on the planet and we walk our talk.

Thanks to so many wonderful local businesses for their ongoing support and to each and every new businesses that comes to the festival and participates in creating a healthy scene and better informed audience.
