In this experiential class, we'll slow down and reconnect with cooking as an act of care, drawing from Ayurvedic teachings and the themes of Eating in the Light of the Moon. Together, we'll prepare a simple seasonal meal while exploring mindful cooking practices, the energetics of nourishment, and what it means to care for ourselves through food.

Migration is one of the most remarkable events in the natural world, and Kleinstuck Preserve offers a front-row seat.

The result is a concentrated, ever-changing gathering of species that is unlike any other time of year.

Mexican cuisine is vibrant, colorful, and deeply satisfying. It is also one of the most beloved food traditions in the world, built on bold spices, bright herbs, and nourishing ingredients.
