Taste the Earth with Isabel

A series devoted to harvesting, preparing, and sharing high vitality foods straight from the Earth.

Join Isabel for a plant walk focused on edible wild plants. We will learn what is good to eat, how to identify it, and when and how to harvest. Putting our new found skills into practice, we will explore and harvest together. After the harvest, we will learn how to prepare the plants into delicious, nourishing dishes and drinks, creating a wild foraged meal, which we will enjoy together. We will also draw from whatever is delicious and available in the garden. This workshop includes an outdoor cooking session and shared picnic lunch.
