The Wolfville Farmers' Market will be augmenting service to its customers in 2010 by offering a weekly demonstration beside the Market Information Booth. The market will continue its popular Tasting Series, featuring in-season foods for sampling on a monthly basis, but will also be partnering with Acadia School of Nutrition and Dietetics , NSCC Culinary Arts Program , Slow Food Nova Scotia , the Ecology Action Centre , and Market Artisans to offer demonstrations and resources almost every week.

The Market realizes that people haven't a lot of time to learn new cooking skills, explore in-season recipes, discover the skills behind the hand-made arts. This program will bring customers useful information quickly and experientially. Resources are jam-packed with tips, recipes, facts and info on what is available at the Market. Customers can find out what will be demonstrated each week by checking out the Wolfville Farmers' Market Website or stopping by the Information Booth.

A Market Fresh for Families demonstration series, being run by students from the Acadia School of Nutrition and Dietetics, will be offered monthly to demonstrate recipes that promote local fruits and vegetables. You can also pick up handouts available that will include recipes, fun facts, cooking tips, strategies to make the foods appealing for children and grocery lists indicating what can be purchased at the Market. The students are very excited to become involved with the Market and look forward to meeting everyone!
