Livestreams are on the third Wednesday of each month and includes interviews with the featured producers, photos of their businesses along with prizes and seasonal recipes. The Fruition Showcase is free for the guest participants as well as the community members’ eager to learn more about the food system of this region.

The guests will be featured sequentially in the program as a series of interviews that are 15 minutes apiece. During the interview, community members can tune in to learn what’s unique about each business, new plans afoot this season and useful tips about how to use their products and more.
