Since October 2022, we have showcased chefs in our community who have shared foods from their culture, along with their personal stories. These events create a space for you to talk to these chefs, learn new techniques, support local restaurants and farmers’ market stands, learn about local ingredients, and meet other people who like to talk about food. You are able to check out cookbooks from the library’s collection at these events to take home and continue your exploration.
Cooks and Books takes place quarterly at the Corvallis Community Center (C3), co-sponsored by C3, Corvallis-Benton County Public Library, and Corvallis Sustainability Coalition’s Food Action Team.
Find the next Cooks and Books on the Corvallis Parks and Rec website.
