Forage + Feast
Forage + Feast
A foraging + feast session together on the land
Service Description
We are excited to offer a new culinary and nature experience for 2024 at Mossy Birch Homestead. Located in the Agassiz forest in Eastern Manitoba, each session includes a foraging class + meal that Erica will create; the meal will showcase 6 plates of edible plants and more that she and her family has foraged off the land. Learn how to identify some easy to find edible and medicinal plants, how to harvest them + discuss the ways to utilize them. While you are out on your mini foraging class with one of our guides, Erica will be cooking (and baking) up a 6 course meal made from all of the items that her family uses and forages. We will start off with a smudge (or cleanse) and offering to the land before going for a 30-40 minute walk. When you come back from your foraging + forest bathing walk, your first plate will be waiting for you on a feasting table located outside on our homestead so that you can enjoy the outdoors while enjoying + learning about each plate that has been created. Erica will discuss the method of how it was cooked and the recipes for all of the courses will be included in a booklet for you to take home. Each meal will include seasonal offerings, such as floral syrups or fermented drinks, mushrooms, herbs and more. A menu will be set up when the session times open up. This session is about a 3 hour forage + feast; please be mindful to show up on time so that you can take in all that we have to offer. There is a max of 10 people per forage + feast; make sure you book early! We will do our best to be conscience of food allergies or intolerances; if you are booking and you have one, it is important to notify immediately so that we can ensure a smooth meal for everyone. We are excited to host you at our table; see you soon! (photos show some examples of food that has been created; this does not mean that you will have those specific meals)
