Seasonal Growing Chart and Upcoming Classes February 14, 2012

Happy Valentine’s Day friends! I hope you take a chance to love on your body today with some exercise and/or delicious produce (and then go eat a chocolate).

I am squirming in my kitchen chair with excitement as I just discovered the Slow Food First Coast website with the date of their upcoming Farm Tour 2012. The date is for Sunday, April 22nd. They do not have the events up yet but last year’s line up looked awesome. My calendar is marked and I hope to see some of you out there visiting and supporting our local agriculture.

I also found a wonderful tool for you on their website, a seasonal growing chart.  This will help you know what to expect from your CSA or farm deliveries. Click here: Seasonal Variety of Produce

Next week I am teaching 2 cooking classes! I hope you can join in on the food fun. Tuesday, February 21st my colleague Ryder and I will be at Whole Foods Jacksonville cooking up savory chocolate dishes.  Click here to sign up.

Next Thursday, February 23rd, I’m back at A. Chef’s Cooking Studio with an exciting class: How to use your CSA box! I’m working on the recipes now but I am planning on using kale, beets, fennel, radishes, kholrabi, and maybe more. Click here for the Studio’s website and calendar. Call Chef Andrea to sign up.

Have a healthy, love-filled day!
