IMAN's 63rd St. Farmers Market 8/17/18

[Eric Rodriguez]

AUA Community,

This week at the market

Local food is a great way to grow connections to people in our community and our greater environment. However, living in Chicago, we cannot rely on freshly grown food year-round. A key practice to relying on local food through the winter is food preservation. At this week’s market, we will be calling for folks who are skilled in food preservation to share their skills with our market goers. Join us!
