Chef Joanne Bondy (Old Hickory Steakhouse) once said, “Old McDonald had a farm, not a drive through.” And each year she takes time out of her busy schedule to volunteer for the AIWF’s Days of Taste program at the Dallas Farmers Market. For 8 days chefs, foodies, nutrition experts, farmers and growers join together to teach children about eating. So get off your couch and teach a kid how to bake a potato. Details on how to volunteer are below. In the meantime, Miss Amy has written a poem.
