Fresh fruit is the topic of May’s Cookbook Club. Let’s get ready for a season full of fresh fruit!

“Fruitful” is a trip to the local orchard, overflowing with ripe, seasonal produce—and it's not just desserts! From sweet to savory, including fresh juices, every chapter is devoted to the produce of the moment: rhubarb, strawberries, apples, plums, apricots, peaches, quinces, pears, and more.

To participate, visit the reference desk at the Chester County Library where you will be given the opportunity to browse The Four Season Farm Gardener’s Cookbook. Choose a recipe, receive a photocopy and then make that dish and bring it to the “Cookbook Club” night, Wednesday, May 15, 2024 at 6:00 PM on the second floor in the Staff Kitchen. Participants will discuss the recipes they have chosen, their experience preparing the dish and any changes made or would make. Dishes will be shared amongst the group for tasting. Don’t forget to bring serving utensils for your dish and a set of dining ware for your own use.

This program supports PA Forward®, an initiative of the Pennsylvania Library Association that highlights libraries’ role in moving Pennsylvania forward. Libraries are key to powering progress, elevating the quality of life by fueling the types of knowledge essential to its success.

Registration is required. Registration will close 2 hours prior to the scheduled start time of the event.
