Zoom: Let's Grow Akron Seasonal Cooking Workshop

Let's Grow Akron presents a virtual summer cooking workshop with a local chef via Zoom. Food kits are available first-come, first-served while supplies last. Please register.

About the Program Series:

In this ongoing series, local chefs will prepare a budget-friendly, seasonal dish with fresh produce from the Summit Lake Neighborhood Farmers' Market and/or Let's Grow Akron Community Farm Market. This series focuses on local, seasonal eating, highlighting its benefits: better affordability, higher nutrient retention, lower environmental impact, and superior flavor. Supporting local growers also strengthens the economy.

Each class includes a 30-minute cooking demonstration, 15 minutes for Q&A, and 15 minutes of information on local farmers' markets and nutrition incentives. Details about these markets and nutrition incentives can be found on the Let's Grow Akron website: www.letsgrowakron.org.
