Fall Fresh

Fall Fresh : A Local Foods Event

Wednesday, November 16 at 6:00 pm, Main Library

Fall is not the end of enjoying fresh local produce: squash, greens and root veggies are best when the weather turns cooler, and there are farms in the area growing produce year-round. Find out how to find fresh, local produce in the fall and winter.  The participants in this month's panel include Deborah and Anni of Rockabilly Farm, Bill and Joanna Lelekacs of Dancing Pines Farm, and Audrey and Debbie of Two Chicks Farm.
