🍲 Build a soup, support local farms!
Stop by the Community Classroom table at the Florence Farmer’s Market between 2–6 PM to assemble a Market Minestrone kit. Kids measure pasta, lentils, and herbs at our table; then you’ll pick up fresh veggies from market stands to finish the soup at home.

How it works (quick + easy):

1. Scoop a simple dry mix (pasta, lentils, herbs).

2. Shop the market for veggies (2–3 cups) and greens.

3. At home, add water or broth and simmer. Dinner = done.

What to pick up while you’re there:

• Microgreens or salad greens 🌱

• Mushrooms 🍄

• Late-summer veg (tomatoes, zucchini, peppers, carrots, celery) 🥕🍅

• Fresh bread for dipping 🥖

• Italian soda for a fizzy treat 🥤

• Flowers for the table 💐

• Beefalo (optional protein to add on the side) 🥩
