Butternut Buddies at Ladd Acres Elementary with Keep Growing Seeds
In this class, co-instructor, Rosario Allende and I went up to Ladd Acres Elementary to have a cooking class with the kids at their afternoon garden club led by Keep Growing Seeds. Together we made a tasty stir-fry, got to know butternut squash, and kids shopped to take home full bags of local veggies from.La Finquita del Buho.
White Turnip Stir Fry with Little Wings Farm
In this class, a farmer from Little Wings Farm in Eugene joined me and the staff team at The Head Start of Lane County to talk about financially accessible CSA options available to families they work with locally, and how to cook a simple and delicious dinner stir fry with white turnips and baby bok choy. All participants at our classes go home with a bag of produce for the week and recipe cards for inspiration.
