Mill City Cooks
Learn how to cook your #WeeklyMarketMeal in our free, chef-led cooking demo, Mill City Cooks, offered every Saturday in the train shed patio from 10:30 to 11 a.m. This Saturday, market chef Jenny Breen will be making Tempeh Bibimbap Bowls with asparagus, fiddlehead ferns and ramps. Plus, our kids’ tables at the demo always feature coloring sheets and other engaging activities, giving adults some free time to relax with a cup of coffee while picking up tips and easy seasonal recipes from our market chefs. Samples and recipe cards are available at each demo—or check out our recipe archive!
