Last Thursday, the Wild Center in Tupper Lake hosted a daylong event celebrating local foods, farmers and chefs. Visitors moved between tasting stations, the farmers' market, a music stage and children's activities. Here are a few scenes from my vantage point as a vendor at the farmers' market. Local food events are taking place all around the region – keep your ears out for one happening near you!
