SUMMARY:Open House at Taproot Kitchen
DESCRIPTION:Taproot Kitchen would like to extend a warm welcome to our open house scheduled for Sunday\, December 11 from 2-5 p.m.  We’ll be opening our doors at 1008 Dill Road to invite the community in to view our prep kitchen\, share some locally made treats\, and talk about next steps for Taproot. We are hoping to foster awareness about our cook room plans that are awaiting county approval and our recently awarded USDA grant to help us support value-added food production on the islands. And a special thank you to Joan Egan for securing this grant for Taproot! \n\nThe USDA Local Food Promotion Program grant is helping us fund a mentorship program for people interested in researching and developing value-added products.  And soon we’ll be buying equipment to support making these value-added products like jams and sauces that will be available at Taproot. We’ll be reaching out to the community in the new year about this program and would like to take the opportunity at the open house to get some interest stirred up.
