Representatives from Cornell Cooperative Extension (CCE) of Herkimer County will be available at the Old Forge Farmers’ Market on Friday, August 16 to promote its Enjoying Local Produce campaign.
CCE staff will share recipes, food samples, and preservation ideas for using fresh produce. They will also distribute the new 2013 Herkimer County Local Foods Map.
The demonstration is made possible through a Creating Healthy Places to Live Work and Play grant through NYS Department of Health awarded to Herkimer County HealthNet.
The Old Forge Farmers’ Market is located on Park Ave., behind the Old Forge Hardware and is open Fridays from 1 to 5 p.m.
