SUMMARY:TRADITIONAL CONTAINER WORKSHOP:  MAKE A BURN-BOWL
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, October 17\, 10 a.m. \nCONTAINER WORKSHOP:  LEARN TO MAKE AN EXPEDIENT BURN BOWL \nJulia Han shows a burn bowl made by Christopher from a burl\n \nAs part of our Container series\, we have taught how to make clay bowls (from local clays)\, how to make baskets\, how to process gourds\, how to make yucca and agave quivers\, how to make soap stone bowls (yes\, a slow process!)\, and this time\, how to make a burn-bowl.  A burn bowl is a piece of a log that we slowly burn out with coals\, and then scrape it out to create a useful bowl.  You will learn by doing. \nWe begin with a dry log\, and cut select pieces. Then we split them\, and you will slowly burn them out to create a functional bowl.  In fact\, there are many items that can be made by this process. \nWe will create coals in our fire\, which you will then carefully put onto your wood. You let it burn a bit\, and then you scrape.  You create a little hole\, and then you add another coal\, and repeat\, and repeat.  Bring a spoon for scraping.   Bring eye protection too. \nSometimes this goes quickly\, and sometimes not\, so bring your water and a snack. \nProbably Hahamongna\, but we will send location to registrants. \nLimited participation. \n$65 ($45 seniors/students)

SUMMARY:THANKSGIVING SEASON -- WILD FOOD COOKING WORKSHOP -- INCLUDING ACORN PROCESSING
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, November 21\, 10 a.m. \nWILD FOOD COOKING WORKSHOP \nJoin us as we do a short walk to forage wild foods that are in season\, and learn how to recognize what is available now. \nWe’ll then gather and prepare  the various wild foods\, along with some that we have brought\, including ACORNS.  You will work together to create a salad\, a soup\, an egg dish\, acorn pancakes\, tea\, and some sort of desert items.  We’ll have mushrooms if we find any. \nLearn how to eat the older nopales\nIt’s worth noting that when the first peoples of Hahamongna lived here\, they relied on the plant and animal life for their sustenance. You will just be getting a small taste of what that would have been like.  And it is worth noting that the majority of the wild foods that are available today are mostly European invasive plants\,  plants that the first peoples would not have had. \n \nBring your notebook and camera\, and bring your water and bowl.  This is not a spectator sport\, so be prepared to process greens\, make the fire\, and cook. \n$65 ($45 for seniors and students)
