THE DEMONSTRATORS FURTHER ENHANCED NATURAL CONTENTS COOKING PRESENTATION BY INCORPORATING OTHER INGREDIENTS FOUND AT THE FARMERS MARKET SUCH AS TONJES DAIRY FARMSTEAD CHEESE
Outside the demonstration kitchen, selling his products, I found Bob Eckert of Northern Farmhouse Pasta. which is produced in Roscoe New York using organic wheat from Cayuga Pure Organics as well. Bob, also known as “the pasta guy”, makes beautiful handmade pastas and ravioli (using other local ingredients for fillings) and is a NOFA-NY business member too! Bob may be reached at NorthernFarmhousePasta@gmail.com Presently Northern Farmhouse Pastas are also available through The Main Street Farm Store in Livingston Manor, New York http://mainstreetfarm.com/. Main Street Farm market also carries bulk flour and beans produced by Cayuga Pure Organics and distributed through Regional Access http://www.regionalaccess.net/Home.html
