August 16, 2022 – Cook-Eat-Grow

Connecting what you cook, with what you grow, with how you eat.

Our presenter, Veronica Porter, was born and raised in Naperville when it was still considered a small farm town. She caught the end of an era when you grew, gathered and prepared your own food. She is a third-generation organic farmer, chef and food educator for home and garden. She will present and demonstrate meal planning, food preparation and preservation.

Veronica brings these values to modern times and shares her experiences by educating and strategizing for healthy, organic gardening, farm to table food integrity, cooking, preservation and living life in a responsible, sustainable and regenerative manner. She is a third-generation organic farmer, chef and food educator for home and garden
