During a recent government meeting, members of the Farm and Street Dinner Committee announced that Veggie Connect will be the beneficiary of this year's Armistice event. The committee, which includes representatives from the city of Iowa City and the downtown district, expressed enthusiasm for the partnership with Veggie Connect, a local organization focused on supporting food market initiatives.

Tickets for the highly anticipated event sold out within five minutes of going on sale, highlighting the community's strong interest in local food initiatives. While the exact date of the ticket sales was not confirmed, it was noted that they occurred in either March or April. Attendees were informed that a waitlist may still be available for those hoping to secure a spot, although entry is not guaranteed.

The Armistice event aims to unite community members around a local food fundraiser, reinforcing the importance of supporting local agricultural efforts and fostering connections within the community.
