Mount Vernon City Library’s Trial By Flavor program introduces patrons to healthy and diverse food choices by offering them inspiration, information, and encouragement. Trial By Flavor consists of a free kit of recipes and information focused on a particular flavor profile, seasoning, or ingredient, along with many of the non-perishable ingredients for making a particular recipe. The take-home kits are complimented with demonstrations by local chefs.

Funds from 4% Friday will be used to expand the program, including offering 8 editions of the program in 2023, with 100 take home kits for each edition.
