Food bloggers are holding a bakesale for Share Our Strength in 2 locations. And there is SO much more going on.

3) Food Summer Camps for Teens and Kids
Cooking, farm experiences, garden camps - you'll be surprised and we hope delighted by all the options for youth to discover and enjoy food.
2) Grab Bag: Deli Summit; One Block Feast Reading; and Doof-a-Palooza
A few potential gems: The cry has gone out to bring back the delis of old. From across the country, deli mavens will gather on
May 19th for a Deli Summit. May 14th brings
Sunset's Margo True to Omnivore for a reading. The weekend of May 21-22 brings not only the
Maker Faire but
Doof-a-Palooza, a free family fest in Oakland geared toward teaching kids about food.
1) Planning for Father's Day
Bookmark our Father's Day listings as we'll be updating Epicuring with intriguing new food events we discover for Dad. (Give him a cheap thrill early with
McClelland's Farmer for a Day, for only $15 this weekend. That's practically an 1800's price!)
