The program will begin at 5 p.m. with exhibits and refreshments from 5:15-6 p.m., followed by cooking demonstrations and dinner.

“This will be our second annual Dinner Tonight Path to the Plate event,” said Jason Ott, AgriLife Extension agriculture and natural resources agent, Nueces County. “A three-course surf and turf dinner will be served, while attendees enjoy live cooking demonstrations featuring the use of fresh ingredients to create delicious and nutritious dishes.”

“Local agricultural commodities will be featured as part of the program,” he noted.
