Join KFPL for this cooking demonstration with Xiaobing Shen!

Learn to make dumplings from local cook, farmer and food enthusiast Xiaobing Shen! Xiaobing helped establish Long Road Ecological Farm alongside Jonathan Davies. Their business offers Farm Sum, a common farm-based food created from organically produced pork and vegetables.

Attendees will receive a Zoom link upon registration.

This event is generously supported by the Friends of the Library.
