At the Culinary Center, Nantucket cooking classes are being offered in conjunction with the festival, focusing on local food. The kick-off event, the Nantucket Grown dinner, is a four-course meal prepared from island-grown ingredients, with Chef Greg sharing stories of what's great and not-so-good about sourcing local food on a small island. The evening should prove to be a great peek into what makes Nantucket's local food scene so special.
