Proof of the Pudding Presents!! an Organic Chef Table at the Carter Center this Sat Apr 5

Proof Of The Pudding Chef 

Launches Organic Cooking Showcase


In the spirit of celebrating spring, Proof of the Pudding’s Chef Ron Jenkins will be hosting a live action pop- up tent at Freedom Farmers Market at the Carter Center April 5 from 9 a.m.-1 p.m.
Jenkins’ menu will incorporate products from the booths at the market, showing that food can be both natural and delicious.
“The best way I think I can benefit my community as a chef and advocate is to educate on the correlation of healthy food production and a healthy planet,” he said.
Jenkins’ passion for organic food stems from his love for nature and drive to protect the planet by using the least amount of harmful products possible, according to a press release. Jenkins teaches farm-to-table cooking with local food sourcing at the Food Literacy Institute, while also functioning as Sous Chef for Proof of the Pudding.

Jenkins will showcase both breakfast and lunch features.
  • Breakfast from 9-10:30 a.m.: Riverview Farm fresh egg vegetable omelet with peppers, onions, asparagus, tomato and Sparta Imperial Mushrooms
  • Lunch from 11 a.m.–1 p.m.: Grilled grass-fed beef burger, fried egg, sautéed mushrooms served with Woodland Farms Organic Garden Salad, and Grass Root Farms slow-roasted barbecue chicken sliders served with Woodland Farms Organic Garden Salad

Freedom Farmers Market brings good food to their neighbors every Saturday, 
9 a.m. to 1 p.m. through Dec. 20. 

Every vendor represented at the market shares a common dedication to sustainable farming practices, and brings a wide range of local products to the table from fresh produce to prepared meals.
