Gale Free Library-Holden, MA Good Morning Liz, I wanted to thank you again for last night's program, which was fantastic! I've received quite a few emails already from our Cooking Group, who said how much they enjoyed it. I really appreciate how easy you made everything for us, especially being our first online program. Your professionalism and guidance helped make last night a calm and enjoyable experience for everyone. We would absolutely love to have you visit again. JM D.
Canton MA, Garden Club Liz, Thank you so much for last night. It was wonderful. The ladies really enjoyed it. I was wondering if your wonderful personality would translate well in this mode (online) and I must say it DID! Having the 3 camera's WOW! Genius idea. Made the program so much more professional and engaging. Now if we can only find a way to sample the goods through the internet....lol. I was excited to see the ladies ask questions and several have reached out to say they had enjoyed your program very much. Thanks again for a great program. I really loved the class! Liz is a great cook and so very sweet. Her passion is evident!
Hi Liz
What a delightful surprise this talk & demo was! The event production was of the highest quality - sound, lighting, visual clarity. You could tell that you present virtually often and you covered a lot in an hour. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you! Dionne R. This Artisan Bread recipe is great!
Baked the dough last night. While dinner was over and my husband didn't have any, I couldn't resist! Delicious and so easy! You must know that your demo gives your audience confidence! Your attitude and positivity is so heartwarming. You forgive yourself for any transgressions from the recipe and this gives others confidence to allow their own changes on purpose or by accident whether it comes out tasty or may need a tweak in the next recipe...but I'm guessing they don't give up. Thank you for your enthusiasm and acceptance of all! You knock these experiences 'out of the park' as they say in baseball! Thank you for sharing your experience with us all! Pat B. Thank you Liz,
You make every lesson loom and be so simple. Liz's presentation is so non-judgmental, exciting and her presentation oozes confidence in her audience. I feel Liz puts effort into this and it will breed much happiness in the kitchen Garden ClubsD Pekin

Sterling, MA Garden Club Hello Liz, Thank you for a very interesting and well-designed program today with the Sterling Garden Club. I have since received very favorable responses from members who were present! Your organization was tremendous and you managed to move the program seamlessly from the slide presentation to the actual cooking- not an easy feat. What I've heard most about though was the list edible flowers you referenced and how you use them. as gardeners, we're often more aware of growing than picking, and your reminder that we can do both was helpful. I'll look forward to receiving the books I and other members ordered and having a go at a couple of your scrumptious looking dishes. Barbie Bowman
Cohassett Garden Club Hi Liz, Just wanted to tell you how much we all enjoyed your presentation this morning. It was the first program I really liked & learned from. Your approach to sharing your garden space with veggies & herbs & perennials is brilliant! Also will be pleased to echo to various garden clubs about you. Your energy is inspirational........keep on doing your magic...you’re a sheer delight. Margaret
Program Chair Duxbury Garden Club Liz - Just a quick note to thank you for a wonderful program last night. By all accounts, it was a rousing success. We received many compliments on your cooking demonstration and everyone enjoyed the slide show of your "edible" gardens. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. Jeanne
Program Chair Bedford NH Garden Club "We had the BEST time with you the other night! What fun, and I can’t tell you how many little things I learned that will make a big difference in how I will plant my garden this year, and how I will prepare meals. I think your program was the highlight of the year, a sort of reward for the hard work the club does for the Town of Bedford. Everyone loved your slide presentation and discussion of your landscape design based on your love of healthy cooking and beautiful gardens. What a beautiful home and gardens you have! We all thank you so much for the delightful evening we had with you, and people are already asking if we can do it again next year. The wine may have helped, but you are a terrific motivational speaker, and we can’t wait to see you again." Jan
Program Chair Milton MA Garden Club “Thank you so much for an amazing program last evening! Everyone thoroughly enjoyed it and went home inspired to get growing and cooking. Your program was the perfect synthesis of gardening and cooking, two areas of great interest to our membership and you are very knowledgeable on both topics. Thank you again for a terrific program!” |

Thayer Memorial Library Lancaster, MA Liz, I can't thank you enough for the wonderful program you gave at Thayer Memorial Library last evening. It was really fantastic and the audience truly enjoyed it. I can't wait to get you back here. North Attleboro, MA Library
Student-Linda A. Dear Liz, Thank you so very much for your excellent class at the Richards Memorial Library in North Attleboro tonight. It was wonderful! So informative! I’m the one with the small Instant Pot who has not used it yet! But I will tomorrow because now I know how! You are a wonderful teacher and presenter. As an educator for 40 years and department chair for over 10 years, I can honestly say, you know how to teach: excellent preparation, calm, friendly communication skills, precise details, interesting comments and so much more! Tonight was a pleasure. I hope to attend more of your classes in the near future. Thank you very much! Kelsey Mathews Library Technician
Athol Public Library Athol, MA Hello Liz, Thank you so much for coming to do your Edible Flower program for us. So many people gave you rave reviews and they loved your food too! Your presentation and demonstration was phenomenal and we can't wait to have you here again. Thank you!!!! Diane Wallace
Director Winthrop Public Library "Liz Barbour, of The Creative Feast, presents one of the best library programs I've ever hosted. She's extremely self-sufficient, the audience loves her and she's very knowledgeable. Just show her to the space and let her go; she sets up and breaks down an incredible amount of material quite efficiently. Liz is very affordable for libraries and my patrons (at two different libraries) can't get enough of her. They want her back again and again. Her slide show and cooking demonstration about Edible Flowers is fantastic. It's a hit with gardeners, foodies and anyone who likes to eat! She handles all audience questions like the pro that she is, and I wish I could host her every month!! I've also seen her program for teens and the kids enjoyed every minute. If every program was as well-received as Liz's it would be a dream come true. Give her a call and you'll see I'm not exaggerating. :)" Student- W. Spence
Amherst Public Library Liz, I thoroughly enjoyed your class tonight! You have a fantastic and interesting way of presenting the information. Besides being a wonderful presenter with great humor, you write very well. I hope you are writing a cookbook. I would call it "Liz's Helpful, Got to have Kitchen Hints". I learned several techniques tonight that everyone needs to know about. Like, cooking cold oil and onions, how to properly chop a onion, using a serrated knife to cut chocolate and tomatoes, how to adjust your recipe to what you have on hand, toasting seeds, when to add spices, etc. You are a treasure! Best regards and hope to see your gardens! Bonnie M.
Student- Dover NH Public Library " I attended your demo at the Dover Public Library, and just wanted to tell you again how much I enjoyed it! Have been practicing chopping onions using the method you taught - won't do it any other way now that I get it! Also, I made the Cranberry Raspberry Sauce w/ fresh rosemary, and it was WONDERFUL...Thanks again for your wonderful program - hope the Library Friends will invite you to speak again!"
