Learn the old process for alkali-cooking, rinsing and wet-grinding homegrown heirloom dent and flint corns into masa for tortillas, tamales or other delicious foods. We'll also make a fresh roasted salsa verde in a molcajete-a volcanic stone mortar and pestle. We'll go into seed sources and varieties, and where to get these foods when you can't grow them. While we make these delicious traditional foods we'll talk about an adaptive Appalachian milpa agriculture for growing these foods as part of an integrated permaculture gardening or farming system. It will all culminate in a potluck taco and tequila feast.

$25-35 per person, sliding scale
