Prepping Your Pantry with Abra Berens

April 19, 2025

Grocery prices got you down? (Us too.) Want to learn how to make better use of your home pantry and prepare more ingredients from scratch? (Sign us up!) Chef and cookbook author Abra Berens will host a “Building a Strong Pantry” event at Farm Club (10051 S Lake Leelanau Dr.) on Monday, April 21, at 6pm. You’ll learn how to make five different condiments (think everything from mayo to salad dressing), build a tasty grain bowl for dinner, and leave with recipes and take-home treats. Berens will be signing her book Ruffage: A Practical Guide to Vegetables afterward, and guests can shop Farm Club’s market or enjoy a drink from the cash bar. Tickets are $45; head to farmclubtc.com/events for more info.
