Description

The mature pods of the honey mesquite tree (Neltuma glandulosa) were one of the most important plant foods to the native tribes of the Southwestern United States, for calories and nutrients.  In this special class focused specifically on this excellent wild food source, you will learn how to identify, collect and process them into delicious food and drinks.  You will also learn about the basic nutritional content, and get to taste your own harvest.

This class will be held at the beautiful Prairie Haven located in Graham, Texas (about 1.5 hours west of Fort Worth).  This property is the home of the SkyEarth Outdoor Skills Gathering, and is an ideal location for learning outdoor skills of all types.

When: Saturday, June 27th at 12pm-3pm
Where:  Prairie Haven Texas, 4139 FM 1287, Graham, Texas 76450
Price: $40 per person

I am also teaching a class on Wild Prickly Pear Processing later on the same day, at the same location.  If you want to come out for the day and get a deep dive on both of these amazing plants, this is a great opportunity!
