The Pangasinan State University- Sta. Maria (PSU-SM) Campus Mushroom Research and Development Center, headed by Dr. Cesar and Elisa Della, was tapped as LGU’s head committee on its 1st Mushroom Cook Festival.
The activity aimed to unleash the cooking potential of the locals in transforming a plain and raw mushroom into Sta. Maria’s pride delicacy. This is also one way of promoting mushrooms as the town’s One Town, One Product (OTOP).
The momentous event was graced by the presence of Hon. Congressman Conrado M. Estrella III who was astonished by the palatable dishes prepared by the contenders.
Truly, PSU-SM makes a significant impact in the progress and development of its adjacent community.
