Chicago Botanic Garden Launches Garden Chef Series
Some of Chicago’s top chefs will be cooking in a slightly different venue this summer – the Chicago Botanic Garden. Each Saturday and Sunday from May 25-October 6, chefs will be offering free cooking demos in the Regenstein Fruit & Vegetable Garden’s open-air amphitheater. Demos are at 1:30 pm and 2:30 pm, and chefs will be showing you how to use fruits and vegetables straight from the garden in delicious recipes.
The Regenstein Fruit & Vegetable Garden features fruits and vegetables that grow in the Midwest. You can also get tips on organic gardening, so you can grow your own dinner ingredients. Seating is first come, first served for the demos, and recipes will be posted on the Garden’s website.
