What's cookin'?

Farmer's Kitchen w/ Fiddleheads Cooking Studio

Starting in August for a few select dates, Farmer's Kitchen is opening its "doors" for cooking instruction to little chefs.

During the TaSH Farmers Market, our little chefs will "shop" in the market, pick up fresh produce and learn how to cook a preselected recipe. The final step, little chefs will be able to sample their tasty creations and take a copy of the recipe home.

Chop, dice or slice...cut to perfection.
