The Emporia Public Library made an exception to the “no food in the library” rule recently, thanks to the addition of a mobile kitchen. Using funds donated by Friends of the Library, EPL recently purchased a Charlie Cart mobile cooking station to provide culinary, nutrition and food literacy programming to residents of Lyon County. … Housed in a rolling cabinet, the mobile kitchen has a working sink, convection oven, hot plate, grill, pots, pans, mixing bowls and all the utensils needed to prepare just about any type of food. EPL has hosted classes in the library’s meeting room and taken the mobile kitchen to the Emporia Senior Center and the Farmer’s Market to host classes on-site.
