This Saturday, June 23, White Rock Local Market hosts a celebrity chef demo exploring how to cook for our pickiest critics - kids! (or any other sceptic). Using only market ingredients, chefs Chad Houser and Randall Copeland will be challenged to make the healthiest foods as tasty as a box of donuts - wait, maybe they'll even use a few from vendor Hypnotic Donuts! You'll have to come see to find out.
Produce is plentiful now, too, with new LOCAL organic vendors 3 Forks Farms, Pure Land Organics, Peachy Page and East Dallas' IRC Garden joining Larken, Lightsey, Farmer Jones, Texas Worm Ranch, Rae Lilli, Grapevine Grains, Fruth Farms, Juha Ranch, Texas Olive Ranch, and the rest. Come get the seasons best peaches, blueberries, tomatoes, squash, garlic and more.
Chef Chad Houser is the co-owner of Parigi Restaurant and co-founder of Cafe Momentum, a non-profit restaurant dedicated to employing and rehabilitating adjudicated teens.
Chef Randall Copeland is the co-owner of Restaurant Ava in Rockwall and Boulevardier coming soon in Bishop Arts.
WRLM is held twice a month – the second and fourth Saturday – at The Green Spot Market and Fuels. Second Saturdays are Everything Markets and feature farmers, food artisans and arts and crafts. Fourth Saturdays are Just Farmers - farmers, producers, and food artisans.
White Rock Local Market has several community programs: a Lone Star food stamp program at the market, workshops, school field trips, and an after school entrepreneurial program.
Vendors include organic growers Farmer Jones Plants and Produce, Texas Worm Ranch, Good Earth Organics and Kitchen Pride Mushrooms. Later in the spring, we will be joined by Rae Lilli Farm, Sachse Heritage Farms, Larken Farms and Lightsey Farms. Juha Ranch returns with grass fed beef, chicken, lamb, pork and eggs; Homestead Heritage will be there with their wide variety of meats and cheeses. Eagle Mountain Cheese, Grapevine Grains, The Tamale Company, Lucido's Pasta, and Texas Olive Ranch. Empire Baking and Village Baking Company will be there, along with Tough Cookie Vegan Bakery and newcomers The Bread Crumb and EMA Baking. Corked in Texas will bring wines from Lone Oak Winery in Burleson, including the 2010 Texas Viognier, which won double gold at the prestigious San Francisco Wine Competition.
