Local Food Guide

A Call for Artwork!

Every year the Merrimack County Conservation District produces a Local Food Guide for residents to find information about locally grown foods. This also gives farmers a place to advertise their products. This year the cover of the guide will be determined by a contest. All high school students who live in Merrimack County or attend a high school in Merrimack County are eligible to participate. The students can draw, paint or use any medium which can be effectively reproduced on to a newspaper.  Students must be able to explain how their design relates to local food. The deadline to submit artwork is March 1st.
