<p>Tanimura & Antle will be participating in the Yuma Lettuce Days Festival, held March 1 & 2 at the Quartermaster Depot State Historic Park. This is the 4th year in a row that Tanimura & Antle has supported the community festival in celebration of Yuma's agricultural industry. These interactive displays and culinary demonstrations show the company's support for this agricultural community, according to a press release.<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">"At Tanimura & Antle, we continue to support education programs with our public, especially children that teach about the produce supply chain. Knowing where your food comes from is the first step to being a responsible and knowledgeable consumer of fresh fruits and vegetables," commented Caitlin Antle Wilson, Sales Service Manager and fourth generation family member.<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">The Toss it Up Salad Bar will invite participants to create their own fresh salad masterpiece utilizing Tanimura & Antle fresh vegetables locally grown in Yuma, the leading winter farm and harvest location. Each year, Tanimura & Antle has invited volunteers from local youth organizations to help at the salad bar, where they earn donations for their clubs and get a hands-on experience with a local ag company. This year volunteers from the Gila Ridge FFA will serve on Saturday and Yuma Valley Achievers 4-H club will serve on Sunday. Salad Bar tickets are $2.00 each, which entitles each guest to a free package of Tanimura & Antle Artisan® Romaine Lettuce to take home and enjoy.<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">The Plant-a-Pot booth is a collaborative effort between Tanimura & Antle and the Western Growers Foundation. Each child can plant a seedling to take home to tend and grow, providing a practical demonstration about where their fresh food comes from. Volunteers at this booth include parents and students from local Yuma schools who have received a Western Growers Foundation School Garden Grant, and who also have incorporated a garden-enhanced curriculum into their lesson plans.<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><a class="btn btn-sm btn-primary col-lg-12" style="white-space: normal;" href="http://www.taproduce.com/" target="_new"> Tanimura & Antle </a></p><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">
