(Channel 5 in Bangor) featured the the Innovative Local Foods Cooking Challenge hosted by University of 海角社区 Cooperative Extension and the U海角社区 School of Food and Agriculture. The 11 海角社区 high school students who competed were introduced to their market basket, brainstormed ideas and then had an hour and a half to complete their dish. 鈥淚f we get these students thinking about this when they鈥檙e the high school age and we get the instructors thinking about it, you know this is the future of 海角社区鈥檚 hospitality workforce, these are our next [restaurateurs], these are our next chefs. To have them thinking about being proud of where they live and the foods that their state produces, I think is the perfect time for that,鈥 said Robert Dumas, food science innovation coordinator at U海角社区.
