After operating Geechee Girl Rice Cafe, our tribute to the food and culture of the Low Country, we've closed the restaurant.

On Saturday, August 10th, at 11:00, Valerie is doing her second workshop of the summer at Wyck Historic House, Garden, and Farm. This time the theme is summer fruit. Val is making blueberry dumplings (dessert with no oven!), watermelon agua fresca (one of the original "red drinks"), and maybe a 3rd dish. It's free to attend, but you do need to register in advance. You can register here: https://www.ticketleap.events/tickets/wyckevents/farm-to-table-summer-fruit-recipes
Here's an interview Valerie did many years ago on NPR about blueberry dumplings.
