The Week Ahead: Friday, October 21 though Thursday, October 27, 2016

October 21, 2016

Thus far October has brought us amazing days of summer-like weather, making it so appealing to get out and enjoy events or just the unbeatable combination of falling leaves and sunshine.  In the Week Ahead there are educational opportunities, readings and presentations to spark your interest in new topics or delve more deeply into old favorites.  The Local Wild Food Challenge is being held this weekend challenging chefs to come up with exciting ways to experience wild foods and challenging each of us to pay attention to the generous table nature lays for us right under our unsuspecting eyes and noses.  Enjoy the Week Ahead!
