Healing Foods in the Kitchen: Spring Greens

In this class, we will focus on wild greens that are available and abundant in the landscape and how to incorporate them into your menu with ease. We will cover 4 basic preparations: the wild pesto, the wild salad, the soup, and the steam. Bring your own bowl and utensils and prepare to feel nourished and inspired to return to your kitchen and recreate these dishes with your own spin!

We seek to make our workshops accessible to everyone, please contact us for sliding scale and work-study options.
