Date: May 30-June 1, 2025
This experience focuses on Southwest food culture and draws on ancient knowledge and methods to influence how we relate to traditional food systems from seed and field to our kitchens. How do we adapt nourishing ourselves with a re-imagined approach that’s light on the body and on the planet? Special Diné guests!
Bakehouse Experience: Learn how to make corn tortillas from scratch.
This is an alcohol Free Event. However, we recommend Wild Edge Brewery, Sutcliffe Vinyards, and Fenceline Cider as great places for local beverages.
