This week at PRFM…
Join us for Hunger Action Day and learn about how we can
work together to take action against hunger in our community. The Atlanta
Community Food Bank, Second Helpings, and Wholesome Wave GA will all be on site
to share, educate, and help you get involved. A few examples of PRFM taking
action against hunger: through Second Helpings, market vendors have donated
over 7,000 lbs of food to in-need residents; and through Wholesome Wave GA, our
market accepts and doubles SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program/food
stamp) benefits so that $1=$2 to make healthy local food more accessible to
all. You won’t want to miss a Saturday morning full of great info as well as live
music from Alex Gordon, and a chef demo and cookbook sale/signing with Hugh
Acheson!

We just can’t say
enough about how awesome our local celeb chef Hugh Acheson is. But we sure did
try in our post last year, so check out our love letter to Hugh here.
Since last year’s demo, he’s racked up a few more accolades: in 2012, he’s
received the James Beard Award for Best Chef Southeast, the Mentor Chef award
from StarChefs.com, and the James Beard Award for Best Cookbook in the field of
American Cooking for his first cookbook A
New Turn in the South: Southern Flavors Reinvented for Your Kitchen. So,
take a turn into the demo tent this Saturday for a little learning, tasting,
and cookbook-signing fun. The brow never disappoints, y’all.
