Harvesting and Preparing Wild Staple Foods

October 26 @ 2:30 pm - 4:30 pm

For millennia humans have sought out wild staples: those foods that contain essential calories and protein. Fortunately these foods are all around us in Turtle Island. Learn about how to prepare acorns to make bread as well as starchy tubers: Apios americana (ground nut), Sunchokes and Cattail corms.

Join us for this interesting and highly valuable two-hour workshop.  Jenn Stotland will discuss harvesting these staples as well as demonstrate preparation of acorns for making bread.

This two-hour workshop will be held at the Tantallon Public Library on Sunday, October 26th, from 2:30 to 4:30pm.

This event is free and open to the public. Donations are greatly appreciated. We welcome new volunteers to help with events like this one. Please contact us at info@transitionbay.ca for more information.
