Event
Fundraiser Cooking Lesson and Dinner!
Join us on Saturday, February 16th as the Haley House Bakery Café puts on a very special fund raising event.
Sign up for an in-depth cooking class and dining experience (5:30pm-9:30pm) to learn the principles of sustainable cooking from celebrated chefs Odessa Piper and Didi Emmons. Or, skip the lesson, and come for just the dinner (8pm-9:30pm)!
The class will prepare a Northeastern regional menu relying on ingredients harvested during winter in combination with other ingredients 'put by' from the winter larder.
This fundraiser event supports Haley House's Take Back the Kitchen (TBK) family cooking classes for CSA members at Madison Park, who are part of the CSA Connect program.
