Chicago Area Villages: An Aging Brain and Body Program
 
Wednesday, August 14
3–4 Central via Zoom
Free; registration required
 
Zoom in to watch and hear Connie Spreen talk about why we should shop at our local farmer’s market. Oh those tomatoes! Connie tells us they may look alike, but they are not the same! If you want to get the most from your dollar, support healthier aging, and bring pleasure back to eating, discover the multiple benefits of shopping at a farmers market, and the many ways it differs from the grocery store.

THEN! Saturday, August 17 at 10am, join Connie Spreen at the 61st Street Farmers Market, 61st & Dorchester, for a walk-around class in getting the best food and the best deals at the farmers market.
