ROOTED's sixth and final course, on its culinary journey through Nova Scotia farm country, celebrated our egg farmers. We learned about the freshness of local eggs and how 4-H has brought farming families together. Scrumptious desserts made from local eggs are the best and created a beautiful Gala plate. Many thanks to Krista from Oulton Farms and 4-H member Evan for taking us on tour - it was lots of fun!
