Hey neighbors!

The Grow Your Own Program is offering a FREE (pre-registration required) workshop on dumpling making on Saturday March 25th from 1:30pm-3:30pm and you're invited! Below is a description of the event, for those that are interested:

"Dumplings" show up in different forms and styles throughout many different regions around the globe. They are a creative and nourishing way to utilize a variety of protein sources and vegetables that you happen to have on hand, and can be a great way to use up leftovers or stretch your food budget. Join self-taught dumpling maker Captolia Santamore in the kitchen, to learn everything you need to know to begin creating your own combinations of flavors. Learn the techniques of filling and folding, and about the different ways to cook your dumplings. After we make a variety of dumplings together we will end with a dipping party, exploring the endless possibilities of dipping sauces. Children are welcome to accompany adults: please let us know if very young children will need an on-site activity in the hallway to keep them occupied. Grow Your Own is a project of the Hardwick Area Food Pantry and the Center for an Agricultural Economy. The mission of Grow Your Own is to increase food independence, better health and wellbeing through shared knowledge and experience. If you have questions please email CAE Community Programs Manager Bethany Dunbar at bethany@hardwickagriculture.org. Register by March 22. Space is limited in this workshop. Donations can be made online for those who wish to contribute, but workshops are always free for participants."

The workshop will be held at the Center for an Agricultural Economy at 140 Junction Rd in Hardwick.
