Did you plant your own vegetable garden this year? Do you get pick them up in the produce section at your favorite grocery store, or at a local farmers market? Do you have a CSA that delivers you a basket full of vegetables each month? Do you ever wonder what to do with some of those veggies?
Have no fear, MetroParks and United Way’s Volunteer Connections have partnered to bring you Veggiepalooza on Saturday, August 13 from 1- 4pm. Being held at Grace United Methodist Church located at 1001 Harvard Blvd, (enter at Salem and Dartmouth),this FREE event will teach you how to make the most of summer’s bounty.
There will be cooking and preservation demos, info on storing fresh local produce, plus tips on how to get kids to eat their veggies. (Hint: Pizza. The answer is pizza.) Liz Valenti of Wheat Penny Oven and Bar will be manning a make-your-own pizza station for kids!
