Forest Kitchen (Winter Conference Workshop)

What does a forest taste like? Much of our bioregion is forested, and yet most of us are only familiar with foods that come from open-field agriculture. Can we fall in love with a forest cuisine and become people who are nourished by vibrant, forested places? Discover some of the flavors and possibilities of a forest-based kitchen in this taste-and-talk session where we’ll explore a flavorscape honoring the long history and bright future of a lushly forested Northeast.
Presenter:
Kyra Kristof (she/her) is tracking and courting an emerging cuisine at the confluence of the genius of place, wisdom of bodies, and evolutionary capacity. Through feasts and food-as-art-as-culture-change projects, she invites and supports ways of eating that simultaneously nourish the aliveness of place and self.
This workshop recording comes from the 2022 Northeast Organic Farming Association/ Massachusetts chapter (NOFA/Mass) Winter Conference.
