Making Tasty Treats with Acorns & Bay Nuts

Forest nuts are eaten around the world for food, and fall in NorCal is the perfect time to harvest!
In this experiential half-day program, we'll be:
- Going for a walk to look at the oaks nearby, learning how to identify some oak species in the area
- We will be providing acorns and bay nuts for you, you won't need to gather them during the class, but you will learn how to gather them on your own (it would be too long a class otherwise)
- Having a hands-on experience processing bay nuts and acorns into tasty treats, including shelling, winnowing, leaching and more
- Learning how to sustainably harvest, dry, and store acorns, and how to roast bay nuts and turn them into yummy treats
- Tasting and making delicious acorn porridge and hummus
- Sharing a history of acorn use around the world, including NorCal
- Integrating community building and embodiment practices throughout our time together
Exact address is provided with registration.
