FORAGING AS A HEALING PASSPORT TO PLACE, PLANTS, ANIMALS and NATURE
Foraging for wild food, eating between tide and forest, makes life a delicious journey. It is a passport to place for northwest naturalist and author Jennifer Hahn, teacher of a popular science course called “Wild Food” at Western Washington University’s Fairhaven College. Enjoy a lively slideshow talk on the cultural, culinary and ecological uses of sea veggies, land plants and marine shellfish, and mushrooms. Jennifer will share stories of her 40 years foraging afoot and afloat from Alaska to California, animals who shelter and eat the food we also love, sustainable foraging tips, nutrition, recipe ideas, and profile from Indigenous traditional food experts working to revitalize Traditional Foodways in the Salish Sea and beyond. Enjoy popcorn “SEA-soned” with local farmed kelp (Lummi Island SeaGreens) and gain a new appreciation for the nature that surrounds and nourishes you. Limit of 60 in-person Attendees. We will also be offering this event as a virtual webinar! Please register for either below:
