The food we will be preparing is meant to be representative of the food eaten in England during the 13th and 14th centuries by town dwellers (for lunch) and the gentry (for the evening feast), and students will be provided with some notes from the instructor's research into this topic.

Foraging

Eulalia Ravenfeld

Cost $1.00      2 Hours      Min 3, Max 15

This class seeks to answer the two most fundamental questions that have plagued mankind since the dawn of time: "What's that? Can I eat it?" In this introduction to wild food foraging, we will discuss some of the finer points of eating from the wild, go over recommended resources on the topic, and go for a walk around the site identifying edible plants (and mushrooms if we are so lucky). Instructor is a veteran forager and outdoor enthusiast, and has only poisoned herself once. Please wear garb suitable for tramping about in the bush, including warm layers and sturdy shoes. Note-taking materials, including a pocket notebook, are required. A digital camera is recommended but not required.
