On Wednesday, October 19, 2022 at 10:30 am, in celebration of Energy Action Month and Food Recovery Week, Robin Hernandez with Crossroads Community Food Network will provide a food demonstration with recovered food from the Crossroads Farmers’ Market using an induction cooktop. After the food demonstration, Montgomery Energy Connection will be providing one participant with their very own induction cooktop and pan.

Robin, who first learned Spanish at nearby Rolling Terrace Elementary School, is thrilled to be back in the Takoma/Langley Park community. Robin holds a BA from Temple University and uses her experiences as a case manager, volunteer coordinator, farmer, and educator to help community members thrive and grow. Most recently, Robin spent a season with Love and Carrots and previously worked with the Washington Youth Garden at the National Arboretum. Robin co-chairs the Gardening Subcommittee of the Montgomery County Food Council.
