The Missouri Humanities Council, More Than Meets the Eye?
While a reasonable person may assume that programming offered by the Missouri Humanities Council holds the sole benefit of focusing individuals’ understanding of the state’s rich history, such a view misses several other benefits afforded by such educational programming. The educational opportunities offered by the council work to further other goals as well.

Spring Forward into Summer Programming
On March 20th, the Spring Equinox officially announced the arrival of the spring season here in the Northern Hemisphere. The appearance of the first crocus and daffodil blooms reminds us that the days will get longer and warmer, but also that the availability of fresh and local seasonal produce is near. Soon we can put aside our winter squash and enjoy early spring favorites like lettuce, spinach, asparagus, and carrots.

Sustenance and Sustainability
After two years of not being able to gather in person, we are looking forward to collectively taking part in eating, thinking, and being merry together while listening to a series of talks on the intersection of both sustenance and sustainable practices in food growing and production.
