Make bread not dough, at the market
Groom a pony and bake some bread, At the Market!
Other than the smell of brewing coffee nothing beats the aroma of fresh baked bread. Shelley Vaugine of Comfrey-Thyme gardens has some of the most sought after breads at the farmers’ market. At 3:30 pm on Friday, Vaugine strives to make life easier for you in the kitchen with a less intimidating approach to baking bread. She will provide a demonstration this week on using pre-made dough to bake bread two ways, in the oven and the crock pot! With her step-by-step approach you will have the confidence to bake bread at home like a professional. There will be opportunities to sample the outcome as well as purchase dough.This talk is suitable for older children as well as adults, Shelley strives to teach children about cooking and will take the extra time if needed to work with a youngster who wants to learn about cooking.
For the kids there will be a special opportunity with the ponies.Cheryl of Pony-Go-Round will teach kids how to safely groom a pony and help those who wish to try it all day this Friday, June 20th from 2-6 pm during the market.This is a weather permitting event.Inside there will be a pony craft too.
