full description & details:
The vision and purpose of the Blues for Food fest is to shine light on the 48 P-Patch food bank and giving gardens that donate OVER 20 TONS of organic produce to food banks, meals-on-wheels programs, homeless shelters and transitional housing in the city. We also strive to promote and protect American blues music and its rich history. Although the blues was born in poverty and despair, its message of life, love and hope continue to inspire us to keep on digging.
