Who: Cayman Islands Agricultural Society in partnership with Michael’s Genuine Food & Drink and Slow Food South Sound.

What: Join the Cayman Islands Agricultural Society as it pairs Grand Cayman’s farmers with chefs from Camana Bay and other restaurants around the island who are committed to sourcing local for a feast of seasonal ingredient-inspired dishes. Guests attending Saturday’s regular Weekly Farmers’ Market at The Market at The Grounds will be able to meet the chefs and farmers, sample their dishes, and get the recipes to make them at home. Relax and enjoy live music and enter the raffle for a chance to win prizes, including restaurant gift certificates, a pair of tickets from Cayman Airways, autographed cookbooks and more. Admission is free.

In the evening, the celebration of ingredients from all Slow Food Day farmers continues at the Camana Bay Beach with a farm-to-beach feast featuring guest chef Hugh Acheson. For more information, visit www.michaelsgenuine.com/SFD13.

When: Saturday 2 February 9-11am

Where: The Market at The Grounds, Lower Valley

Why: Slow Food Day 2013 is a celebration of local ingredients and the people that grow and harvest them. Comprised of two main events, the goal is to generate demand, as well as more opportunities, for farm-fresh products to show up on restaurant menus and grocery shelves across the island.
