29th Annual National Lentil Festival

From 29th Annual National Lentil Festival Website:

Our area of eastern Washington and northern Idaho, the Palouse Region, grows a quarter of the lentils in the United States. Since its beginning in 1989, the National Lentil Festival has brought national attention to Pullman. The Palouse region of farmlands in Eastern Washington and Northern Idaho has a reputation for producing the highest quality lentils in the United States. We think that is worth celebrating.
Nowhere else are there such fabulous festivities in honor of the lentil. The 2014 festival was a tremendous success and we anticipate nothing less in 2015.
The National Lentil Festival focuses on the local community, local volunteers, and all that makes up the Palouse. Local honorees are recognized at the Unveiling of the Walk of Fame, a local artist designs the festival poster, and local microbrewers, wine and hard cider makers are showcased in the beer and wine garden.
The National Lentil Festival remains a great way for Pullman to come together as a community of families, students, artists, athletes, and business owners. We look forward to making the 2015 National Lentil Festival a great event for the community and our thousands of visitors that come each year just to celebrate the lentil!
