Cooking

Cheap and Healthy Food
Come and learn techniques for saving money and eat dinner with Charli
Vogt, RN, who loves doing anything that involves the kitchen. She will
take you through the process of shopping, planning, preparing and eating
the meal. Research has shown that you save money if you go to the store
with a list. Each student will receive a grocery list, a planning form
for a week of food, and recipes for 4 different meals that are easy,
cheap and healthy. Plan to eat one of these meals with us. Use of the
pressure cooker and slow cooker will be covered. Check out Charli's

Gardening
Worm Compost: The Basics of Great Worm P--P!
Learn about the benefits of composting with worms. According
to the EPA, approximately 10% of the waste stream is food and over 38%
of the waste stream is paper. These materials can be used as food and
bedding for a worm bin. It's easy, fun, odorless and produces a great
soil additive! Class participants will learn how to house, feed, harvest
and care for their own worms. Be prepared to roll-up your sleeves and
make your own worm bin including the instructions and worms ready to
start composting. From ages 6 and up, accompanied by a parent.

Saturday, November 14, 10 a.m.-noon
