We’re celebrating local honey and pollinators with a honey sampling, featuring honey from four different farms: Davidson’s Farm, Havlicek’s Orchard, Minnesota Food Forest, and Walsh Ridge Farm. “Sweet Nature” authors Beth Dooley and Mette Nielsen will be signing books from 10 a.m. to noon. Neighborhood Roots board member, dietician, and cookbook author Lizzie Streit will be demoing and sampling a recipe featuring honey from noon to 2 p.m. For information on how to care for pollinators in your yard, stop by the Hennepin County Master Gardeners’ table.

Round out your shopping with grass-fed beef and pasture-raised pork from Johnson Family Pastures and Dancing the Land Farm, poultry and eggs from Heart and Soil Ridge, and wild-caught salmon from Wild Run Salmon.
