Market Mondays & Chef Allen’s Farm-to-Table Monday Night Dinners at the Arsht! This week: Jamaica

This December, Market Mondays welcomes new produce vendors to the Farmers Marketplace. Taste of Redland will participate with locally-grown Redland-Raised and Fresh-from-Florida produce. Cerasee Farms adds in local offerings straight from Liberty City. 

Additionally, Taste of Redland will provide produce for Chef Allen’s Monday night farm-to-table dinners. The curated dinners will be centered around Taste of Redland produce, and a farmer from Redland will be on-hand to discuss farming practices and the local produce experienced throughout the evening.
