About Fresh-Picked Seattle
Fresh-Picked Seattle aims to be a one-stop shop for information about food events and cooking resources around the Sound.
If you are a curious novice looking to improve your knife skills, a seasoned home cook who wants to branch out into a new endeavor like cake decorating, or just a person who loves to eat who's looking for a special holiday event, you can use this site to help you track down what you're looking for in the greater Seattle area.
You can use this site in a few ways. See the...
- Food Events Calendar for events by date.
- A La Carte Pages for events/resources by topics like chocolate, foraging, canning and more.
- Freshest News for weekend & holiday event round-ups & occasional reports from the field.
- Local Resource Pages for market maps, CSA's, more.
- FPS on Facebook for weekly “Three for Free” posts.
- FPS on Twitter for the latest event updates.
Please note: these events are sourced from many many different websites and it's not always possible to return to them to check for updates, sold out events, cancellations, etc. Please always check ahead with the venue or original poster (which will always be linked to in the event) to confirm dates, times and locations.
About Leslie Seaton
I like to eat, drink and so on. I also like to tell people what to do. Ergo: this website.
When I'm not out and about, I'm probably cooking or writing about cooking at www.Three-Bowls.com. Also check out my free events calendar site Freeattle.com.
If you have any questions, suggestions or events you'd like considered, please feel free to email me.
My full list of sites is at www.LQS101.com.
About the photos on the site
Most photos were found on Flickr's Creative Commons. Please see under the image for most photo credits and a link to the photographer's page. Also check the bottom of the post for some posts in earlier 2009.
Photos used in the small navigation buttons are credited on the page they lead to.
If you see your material here and it's not properly credited, please let me know and I will fix it right away. I have made every effort to ensure that never happens, but if I make a mistake, please let me know and I will rectify it ASAP.
Here are the credits for the photos used in the collage in the FreshPickedSeattle logo used on my other sites: Lettuce via DichoHecho. Eggs via WWWorks. Coffee Beans via BabbageCabbage.
The blueberry and fish images in the logo and many of produce and Pike Place Market pictures on this site were taken by my friend Aimee Quiggle. If you have any interest in more of her work, email me and I will forward it along.
