Local Flavor: Waltham
Cookbook
BUY YOUR COPY FROM US & THE
PROCEEDS WILL HELP OUR
ORGANIZATION!
List price is $19.95
The cookbook features lots of
recipes from the Farm as well
as from contributors such as Healthy Waltham
and local
restaurants. Local
Flavor is more than a cookbook. It's a
celebration of the city's rich culinary heritage,
handed down from generation to generation and
inspired by the countless immigrant groups that
flocked to Waltham's factories.

Who Made the
Squash Gratin for the Harvest
Potluck?
Over 100 people
shared in the season's bounty this November at
our annual Harvest Potluck, and lots of
people werre talking about that delicious
squash gratin. Did you make that
dish? Do you think you know who did?
We'd love to get the recipe and let others have
it too. Contact Claire with any information leading to
the solving of this
mystery! |
