Description: You’re invited to join us for an evening of community discussion and participatory learning on the culturally relevant foods and plants that will be planted in the BIPOC Community Garden at Beacon Food Forest. Students from the University of Washington’s Nutritional Science program will help guide the discussion as we learn about the nutritional value of the various annual plant starts, direct sowed plants, herbs, and fruit trees to be planted this Spring. Our hope is to generate community conversation and excitement of the culturally relevant foods and provide a space for participants to share prior knowledge and experience with the culturally relevant plants. Participants are encouraged to bring recipes to share that incorporate their favorite culturally relevant foods. 

RSVP/Questions. No RSVP needed. Please contact alitzow@uw.edu with any questions or if you require special accommodations.
