What A Peachy Life: Farm & Bay to Table

7:00 PM - 8:00 PM

Event Details

Nothing says summer like a just-picked peach! A virtual visit to Black Rock Orchard and 32nd Street Farmers Market with farmer David Hochheimer will showcase the art of growing and selling peaches and other stone fruit.  Al Meckel, owner and head baker at Parkville's legendary Fenwick Bakery will then share how to make the iconic Baltimore peach cake right at home.


We'll end the night with Library CEO Mary Hastler and Chef John Shields live from his kitchen where they will make a nifty enchilada dessert that pairs local cherries and peaches together.  A peachy cocktail made with Maryland liquor is our nightcap.  So, let's get cooking!
