National Lentil Festival
More than a third of all the lentils grown in the United States come from the region of eastern Washington and western Idaho, so where better to stage the National Lentil Festival, Road Trips Foodies!
The foodie fun takes place in Pullman, Washington, August 19 and 20, 2011, but almost all of the lentil-centric stuff takes place on August 20, including a food tent (featuring all things made with lentils) and the Legendary Lentil Cook-Off, sponsored by the USA Dry Pea & Lentil Council that represents the nation’s dry pea, lentil and chickpea industry.
