The Shop Local/Eat Local Workshop will be held from 10:00am to noon at their office located at 4633 US RT 68, Yellow Springs.

It will be presented by two enthusiastic local gardeners, food shoppers, and cooks Magaw and Carlson,

who will share their techniques for shopping, foraging, storing, and cooking local

foods. They will demonstrate how to make broth bag soup base and a variety of pestos and other

creative meal makers, using what is in your refrigerator and cupboards.  Also there will be tips on how to

stock your pantry for meals in a pinch.
