Program Description
Embark on your family-friendly edible adventure when you visit Mt. Pleasant Farmers Market this summer and pick up your own free Cook the Kit. Each Cook the Kit includes:
- A featured farm-fresh recipe.
- Pantry ingredients.
- A voucher to purchase your farm-fresh produce ingredients at the farmers' market.
Transform your kitchen into a harvest test kitchen that inspires your culinary talents while creating a specially selected recipe to satisfy your palates. Bonus bites - each fun Kit comes with a delicious reward at the end.
Cook the Kit will be available once per month for pick-up at the Mt. Pleasant Farmers Market on select Thursdays at Island Park and select Saturdays at Town Center at Broadway and Main streets. Please check in at the Mt. Pleasant Parks & Recreation tent near the cooking demonstration. While we may have some extra kits available the day of, we strongly encourage everyone to reserve their Cook the Kit in advance by registering here. One Kit per household, please. Due to fresh produce availability and storage constraints, kits not picked up after Saturday's market date will be offered to marketgoers on a first come, first served basis the following week.
Cook the Kit: Farm Fresh Flavor is made possible through a community partnership with the Chippewa River District Library, Mt. Pleasant Farmers Market, and McLaren Health Plan.
