“We had an excellent turnout for the first Taste Education session featuring local coffee producers,” said Kaʻuhane. “We’re honored to present Melissa and two producers as we work to bring local producers in our community to the forefront so others may learn about their work, how their product is made, where to find it and more.”
“It’s inspiring to meet the people behind the product and craft,” said Chris Speere, Slow Food Maui Education co-chair. “This will be a fun session.”
Whole Foods Market Maui provides supplementary ingredients to implement the Taste Education series at Maui Culinary Academy.
Several Slow Food Maui folks were spotted at Tastings Of Archipelago event night before last—Susan Campbell, Roxanne Tiffin and Peter Liu among them.
The event was a fundraiser for the Lahainaluna Agricultural Department Youth At Risk program held at Archipelago Maui, hosted by our own Dania Katz of Edible Hawaiian Islands. The food was amazing!
