FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Chambersburg (August 15) - The South Central Farmers Market Association announced today that Ms. Janet Riley, local cooking expert and newspaper columnist, will conduct a cooking demonstration at Chambersburg's Southgate Farmers Market on Saturday, August 19th.

Her presentation will begin at 10:00 a.m.; and she will be on hand to talk with shoppers until 12 noon.

The Southgate Farmers Market, currently in its first year of operation, is held each Saturday morning from 8 a.m. to Noon on the parking lot of Southgate Shopping Center - at the corner of West Washington Street and Cedar Avenue in Chambersburg. The market brings a wide variety of fresh fruits and vegetables - many grown without the use of chemicals - to local residents.

As featured recently in the Chambersburg Public Opinion, the Southgate Farmers Market has blossomed from a handful of vendors to a full-scale operating market. Recently, the Market added sales of organic beef to its product line; and the Market features two vendors selling finished products: including breakfast and coffee, and a specialty seasoned chicken.

The public is invited to share in this free presentation of August 19th.
