Shannon here! If you've come to us at Family Dinner, I have to assume that you care about your food. You want to make sure that it's local, healthy, and that it's good for you, the community, and the environment. And we love that about you and love serving you all this local, seasonal bounty! Sometimes, though, you may not get to that beautiful bunch of kale right away or are questioning what fruit is okay to leave on the counter or the fridge.
