Get Cooking: Cool in the Cabana

Join Judy King in the kitchen for our Cool in the Cabana cooking class! We will be making a delicious Warm Farro Salad with Spring vegetables. This is a variation of a grain salad based recipe. This simple warm farro salad features the flavors of spring. Asparagus, sugar snap peas, tomatoes, and dill with creamy feta make a perfectly fresh combination.

CLASS UPDATE: We have added a SECOND Cool in the Cabana class as our kitchen was getting a bit cramped. This popular class will now have TWO dates on the calendar per month, as long as there's interest. When you sign up, please specify which date you'd like to attend.

CLASS ADDED: Tuesday, June 18

Time: 10am

Location: Community Thread, Stillwater

Cost: FREE for Thrive Enrich and Connect members and $5 for intro/non-members.

Call 651-439-7434 for questions.
