Please join me and my wife Rondia on Sunday, April 23, from 10 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. to continue your Earth Day weekend celebration with an Earth Week Wild Food Experience. The event will begin with a morning foraging walk on the grounds of Euterpe Farms’ outdoor study area overlooking the Ventura River Preserve. After the walk, hands-on food processing activities will take place under an oak tree to prepare a vegetarian community meal. Everyone will have a chance to participate in all activities.

Participants will:

• learn to identify and collect edible, medicinal and useful plants of the season
• make a salad or vegetable dish with wild greens collected on the property
• process acorns for pancake batter
• prepare elderflower fritters and acorn pancakes
• process wild black walnuts to top off the meal

There may be other activities, depending on seasonal foods and supplies available.  I will have my book, Medicinal Herbs of California, available for sale and signing after the meal along with my entire mobile bookshop.
