Saturdays with the Chef returns to Kingsport Farmers Market

Popular cooking series highlights the skills and talents of local chefs

Kingsport’s long-running cooking series – Saturdays with the Chef – will return to the Kingsport Farmers Market on June 7. Discover how to take advantage of those peak season produce items with creative tips and new recipes from local chefs.

“We’re excited to bring in the summer season with this popular and informative program,” said Market Manager Kristie Leonard. “The Kingsport Farmers Market is a great place to shop, but we also strive to be a place where people can learn something new too.”

Saturdays with the Chef is a free cooking demonstration series showcasing local chefs and their recipes using produce available at the Kingsport Farmers Market. Free samples of the recipes will be available at each demo.

The series takes place every Saturday morning at 9 a.m. in June at the Kingsport Farmers Market.

Come down to the market and sample cooking from featured chefs from local businesses, then buy the ingredients to make it at home while you’re at the market. Purchasing from local farmers not only boosts the local economy but is also a great way to provide healthy and fresh food for you and your family.

The series is sponsored by Food City, Healthy Kingsport and the City of Kingsport.
