PLANET GARDEN: Eco-Friendly Resource Guide

Planet Garden Kitchen Show Auditions

Posted in Sustainable Column by planetgarden on October 21, 2009

Does your family say you have a talent for cooking delicious and nutritious foods?  If you like to share how home-prepared foods are nutritious for families and how homegrown veggies make delicious soups and dinners, you might like to be on the new local cooking series– Bluebird Market Kitchen Show.  We are scheduling auditions for weekly guest cooks. 

 

If you have ever watched The Victory Garden on PBS, you might have seen Victory Garden South which was filmed at Callaway Gardens. If you have seen this show you probably have seen the cooking segment and garden recipes.  This is the part of the show where veggies are prepared in healthy meals to show how to use garden vegetables and fruits.  The Bluebird Market aim is similar to this show as a best practices model– with a focus on healthy cooking with Farmers’ Market fruits, vegetables, herbs and farm fresh eggs. 

 

Bluebird Market has community weekly cooking demonstrations that are fun and informative lessons such as “How to Can” by Alice Versemann and “How to Use Veggies for Focaccia” by Cathy Kreismanis.  Last week Bob James, from James Family Farm, gave a fun lesson on how to use Farmers’ Market Peppers in Homemade “Kicked Up” Pimento Cheese.  This Saturday, local Girl Scouts will attend this community cooking class to earn their cooking school badge.  They will learn how to prepare a warm breakfast of Apple Muesli and Granola using Farmers’ Market apples.

 

The Bluebird Market Kitchen Show is recorded with a live audience who is invited to participate and enjoys tastings after the show.  It is simple and fun and we are lining up auditions now for anyone who would like to be a guest cook on the show.  Email:  bluebirdmarket@gmail.com

 

All ages are welcome to attend the show Saturdays, 11:00 am at 215 Barnesville Street in Thomaston.  We are excited to offer residents a fun opportunity in our community to be a part of a Farmers’ Market Kitchen Show.  We invite you to audition.
