Cholla Buds: The Caviar of the Desert
Join us for an adventure to harvest the buds of the often maligned but nuritionally rich cholla cactus. Using traditional harvesting methods, participants will be taught how to carefully remove spines and cook cholla buds, while learning about their ecology, anatomy, ethnobotany, nutritional and medicinal qualities. This is the ultimate experience in eating local; you will leave with new recipe ideas to surprise friends and family. Instructed by Martha Burgess. Limit 15.
