\nThe \;theme for this series of classes i s local\, seasonal eating. The benefits of cooking and eating produce grow n locally and harvested in season will be emphasized. Seasonal produce is more readily available and\, therefore\, more affordable at the grocery st ore or farmer's market. Local produce is harvested closer to ripeness and travels a shorter distance from the farm to the grocery store\, therefore\ , retaining more nutrients and reducing impact on the environment. Purchas ing from local growers and producers stimulates and strengthens the local economy. Seasonal produce grown and harvested locally has the best flavor!
\nEach class will include a 30-minute cooking demonstration plus 15 minutes for Q&\;A and 15 minutes to share information about Let's Grow Akron Community Farm Market\, Summit Lake Neighborhood \;Farmer's&nbs p\;Market\, and local farmer's market nutrition incentive programs.
