We finished our market season with a cooking demo. We featured products from several of our vendors including mushrooms from Flyway Family Farm, sweet potatoes from Miller Tater Farm, carrots from Shade Tree Farm, and herb blend from Flora Bay. Thank you to Kim Reese for all her cooking demos this season. Kim is a student of SIUC Nutrition Program. |
