Unpacking Popular Trends in Food & Finance
Monday, February 26th | 5:30-7:00PM | 700 Technology Square Branch


Popular Food Trends – Are they Worth the Investment?

To kick off the 2018 Financially Empowered Women Series, we’re welcoming back Catherine Smart of Christopher Kimball’s Milk Street to talk about the 5 most popular food trends we’re seeing now (think: meal service plans and the instant pot) and to discuss – is it worth the investment? What are the pros and cons?

Rachel and Tyler of Society of Grownups will also join us for a discussion on the personal finance side of these trends. We’ll talk about how to build them into your budget along with your other financial goals such as buying a home, planning for a major expense, or adding to your emergency fund. We'll also touch on some of the major financial trends to keep an eye on for 2018 such as budgeting apps, energy efficiency loans and more.
 
As always, our events are open to all, members, non-members, men, women, and anyone else interested in joining the conversation!
