As most of us know, the Festival on the Neuse is just around the corner, and we have made exciting plans for guest vendors at the market. One of these guests will be Ruth Anderson, graduate of the Culinary Institute of America and teacher of English language arts, who is baking some special items that may be  pre-ordered. Ruth does this to raise money to help send  high school students to areas of Europe to travel and study... This time the trip  will be to Greece in 2024.
