Felsina Italian Wine Tasting
Oct 23 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm
Wine House

Laura Van Havermaat, Director of Felsina Winery North America will be walking us through 5 amazing wines from Felsina in Tuscany, Italy paired with Meatball subs from local fan favorite Cucina Del Borgo!

Fattoria di Fèlsina has long been one of the great names in Tuscany. Based in the Chianti Classico region, Fèlsina produces one of the finest ranges of ageworthy and complex Chianti bottlings in all of Italy. Unlike many of their neighbors, Fèlsina has never succumbed to the temptation to produce “new age” wines from their fine Chianti vineyards, and continues to grow solely Sangiovese here, rather than dabble with international-styled blends that include Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot. Consequently, their elegant yet intensely flavored Chiantis place them firmly among the top handful of Chianti producers, with the best vintages of their top Riserva Chiantis often approaching Brunello di Montalcino in terms of complexity and potential for longevity. In addition to their distinct bottlings of Chianti Classico, Fèlsina also produces one of Italy’s top Vino di Tavola’s (or IGTs), called Fontalloro. Fontalloro is also 100% Sangiovese, with the wine sources from old vines in three top vineyards that straddle the border between two of Chianti’s top regions: “Classico” and “Colli Senesi”. It is produced from vines that are in excess of fifty years of age, and aged in small French oak barrels for fifteen to eighteen months prior to bottling.

All Inclusive, tickets are limited! **Groups of two may be placed at communal tables

Cooking Up Confidence – Virtual Cooking Series
Nov 2 @ 5:45 pm – 7:15 pm
online

Cook along with various healthcare professionals from Diabetes Education, Food Services, and Cardiology from the comfort of your own home.

Cooking Up Confidence is a series of 4 virtual cooking classes and will cover a variety of different cooking techniques to make home-prepared meals easier and fun! Recipes can be adapted to meet your family’s needs.

5:45-7:15 PM every other Thursday: October 5, 19, November 2, 16

Classes will be taught using a FoodShare Spartanburg produce box, but are not required to participate. The recipe concepts and grocery list will be sent out by the Monday before class at the latest.

If using a box, you will need to pre-order, purchase, and pick up a box before each class. It’s easy! BOX ORDERS FOR THIS CLASS ARE DUE BY 2PM THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 28TH.

Box pick up is at 147 Chapel St. Spartanburg, SC 29303 (right up from SMC, less than a mile) Wednesdays before class.

Order by calling Ruth’s Gleanings/FoodShare at 864-586-2840 or in-person at 147 Chapel St.

FoodShare boxes cost $21 credit/debit, $20 cash, or $5 for folks with SNAP. The boxes contain 9-12 varieties of produce, with a value of $20-$30, from South Carolina as much as possible. We will send out reminders for ordering before each class. You will also be responsible for purchasing some extra pantry staples and optional proteins.

There are two main goals for the classes:

1) To teach basic skills to be comfortable cooking and substituting ingredients for what you have or want to use.

2) Have fun in the kitchen cooking with others and their families!

Components of the class include food safety, cooking methods, cooking skills, food storage tips, and nutrition. We recommend these classes for people who want to expand their comfort with cooking, and we encourage children ten years and up to join in!

We will ask you to answer some survey questions for us at three different points during and after the class to tweak these classes to be effective for future community members. Participants must sign a liability waiver before participating.
