The 19th annual U.S. National Arboretum’s “Cookout Under The Stars” celebrated the bountiful state in America’s Heartland — Iowa. More than 600 guests dined on Iowa-sourced cuisine among notables, such as the Iowa Congressional Delegation, Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez and Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack. Iowa’s Senator Tom Harkin was honored with the gift of an apple tree cultivated from an ancestor of the Hawkeye, the original strain of the Red Delicious apple.
