Maine Fare- Celebrating the Bounty of Maine! Is a three day event held each year in the mid-coast area with tastings, book signings, cooking classes and demonstrations, great food and beverages of all kinds, and over thirty of the best chefs in the state getting together to show off the bounty of food in Maine. If you are a foodie, then this is the place to be the third weekend in September, Friday 9/14, Saturday 9/15, and Sunday 9/16/2007.

Originally this event started out as the 2005 Camden Food and Wine Festival but it grew so rapidly that the focus had to widen as well. Now Maine Fare is coordinated by Maine Festivals and Events, a nonprofit corporation dedicated to preserving, protecting, and sharing the cultural resources of Maine through a wide range of educational programs and special events.

Zingerman's, the famous Ann Arbor delicatessen and foodie hub, is expanding its offerings with the opening of a new baking school. The Bake! baking school is part of Zingerman's Bakehouse, which is responsible for the indulgent pastries and artisanal breads that the Zingerman's group sells. The classes, which run from $40 to $125 each, all teach single skills and are aimed at imparting professional tips and techniques to everyday cooks. Scones, baguettes, strudels, pizza dough and sourdough breads are all topics that will be covered and the classes will vary in length based on the complexity of the subject matter and the time involved in making the product. Students can take one class or a series, depending on what skills they want to master. For those who want to do it all, the school is offering a "Bake-Cation," which is a four-day class that covers everything from quick breads to sourdough with homemade starter. Every single course is entirely hands-on.

College students promote Gardenburgers

After emerging from bankruptcy earlier this year, Gardenburger is looking to rebuild its brand. They turned to college students for help. A spokeswoman from Gardenburger stated that college students were a good market for the brand because "college students tend to be more aware ... about the environment [and] about health" - meaning that they are slightly more likely than the average person to reach for the vegetarian option at the table.

The company has set up a program with advertising classes at five US universities, where the students at each campus are to design a campaign for the company and at least one will be used nationally in the fall. The students are not being paid for this work - and are more than likely being graded on their ideas - but the opportunity to work on a national campaign for a nationally known brand is a chance that any college student looking to go into advertising or marketing is likely to jump at.
