Seasonal Flavors: A Farmers Market Walk & Talk

Ever wondered about the stories behind your seasonal greens or the best way to prep a local kohlrabi?
Calling all home cooks, flavor seekers, and veggie lovers!
Join Vanessa, founder of Alegria Vegana and community educator, for an intentional stroll through the RiseBoro Farmers Market at Maria Hernandez Park. We’re moving beyond the grocery list to build a deeper connection with our local food system.
