It's Fair Time!
Aug. 5, 2013
The Northwestern Michigan Fair is underway with a slew of activities all week long. One special event is part of Kids' & Special Kids' Day this Wed., Aug. 7, in which the focus will be on local foods instead of cotton candy, elephant ears and other typical fair treats.
Cooking With Kids will take place between 3 and 7 p.m. at the fairground gazebo. A team of restaurant, school and specialty chefs will teach kids about the benefits of locally-grown foods. Guests will gets hands-on experience creating and eating smoothies, pasta salads and wraps. The free event is presented by the Michigan Food & Farming Network along with donations from Crystal Mountain Resort, TCAPS and Oryana.
