Chef Antonio Cagnolo from Italian restaurant Antonello’s in South Coast Plaza visited The Farm during this year’s LACF.

Another Fair season has come and gone. It seems like only yesterday that we were beginning our adventures at LACF!

Earlier this month we witnessed volunteers, philanthropists, LACF staff and board members, homemakers, and other community leaders join their strength and raise the walls of the veteran home being built by Pomona Valley Habitat for Humanity. The day was filled with joy, tears, and the promise of hope. Building part of the home at LACF…
You can find almost every type of food on a stick at the Fair. It’s one of our staples! It doesn’t matter if it’s turkey legs, corn dogs, waffles, pickle poppers or gansitos, if you can stick it, it’s here. It only makes sense that we have an ‘Everything On A Stick’ food contest! Culinary…
