Taste: Cooking a Summer Bounty

On August 14th Farm managers from the Tohono O’odham Nation’s San Xavier Cooperative Farm team up with Tucson chef Janos Wilder to teach and cook!

Our desert community is bursting with fruits and greens and flowers thanks to this monsoon season! In this workshop, we will hear from the staff of San Xavier Co-op Farm and Mission Garden, where we will learn about the natural history and cultural importance of desert food plants. Tucson chef and former board chairman of Native Seeds/SEARCH, Janos Wilder will cook up a feast with a selection of fresh monsoon-season desert foods and have a live Q&A session!
