Local Foods

As the demand for fresh local foods increases not only in the senior community, but across all age groups, senior-dining has responded with additional events and programs to meet this need.

More and more we are hearing about schools introducing healthier foods, the popularity of Farmers Markets around the country and small home gardens, reminisce of victory gardens, as well as community gardens becoming the norm.

Chef Higgins has excepted the challenge and working with OSU Extension, Knox County, and the Knox County Local Food Council is using the Homegrown guide to help demonstrate why and how to use local fresh foods at Schools, Farmer’s Markets and participated in 2010 at the Ohio State Fair's Heartland Cuisine program - a cooperative effort between The Ohio Department Of Agriculture, Ohio’s commodity associations, Ohio 

agribusinesses and Ohio’s premier chefs using Ohio Proud products.

“You know your doctor, you know your dentist. Why not know your farmer?”

Senior-dining welcomes all inquires and will customize presentations, demonstrations, or meal functions for your school, church, or organization.
