Join us for three evenings in June where you will learn more about eating local. Cornell Cooperative Extension has a great
line-up of topics and speakers that include local restaurateurs, chefs and educators to help you enjoy our local bounty! Find out how to shop for local products, plan meals for your family or discover the latest methods of cooking vegetables. All this and more will be part of the Eating Local Yet? Summer Series.
We are offering three topics in the Summer Series in three locations across the North Country. Be sure to register for a session near you! These hands on, interactive sessions will provide you with the opportunity to learn from masters and have fun at the same time.
Join us while we explore topics of:
- Shopping, Meal Planning and Cooking with Local Foods: Local Speakers will take attendees through the ins and outs of shopping for local food, planning meals, tips for working with local farmers and much more!
- All about Meat: Learn how to cut up a chicken; make soup stock from bones, and how to use different cuts of beef and pork. Local Chefs & restaurateurs will talk about different cuts of meat and how you can stretch your food dollar. Attendees will have a hands-on chance to cut up a chicken and try out tips for using the whole bird!
- All about Vegetables: Learn the latest cooking methods for vegetables; how to select and store your vegetables and make your own salad dressings. Local Chefs & restaurateurs will share tips on how to make the most of your vegetables. CCE will provide information on selection and storage of vegetables you buy or grow.
