Winter Wonders: Pine-Infused Home Goodies
In this workshop, forager, food writer and KCDC organizer April Thompson will teach you 10 neat ways to use one of nature’s under-appreciated winter gifts: pine needles. In this workshop, participants will learn about the health and flavor properties of pine needles, ID and harvesting tips, and learn to create several edible and household goodies from pine needles, including pine salt, pine sugar, forest chai, infused vinegar and a body scrub. Participants will walk away with one item to use at home. (List of ingredients will be shared in advance; you can bring your own or pay a $5 materials fee for them to be provided.)
