About the event:

Recognized as a Master in Ancestral Foodways, Chef Maria founded and operates Sana Sana, a plant-based movement aimed at healing our community from diseases like diabetes and hypertension through food. Chef Maria has been working with local community groups to expand their knowledge of ancestral/traditional foods by providing community cooking classes, demos and workshops as well as a mobile Indigenous Food Pantry.   

During the course of this hands-on workshop, Chef Maria will focus on seeds & storytelling while preparing a meal. Participants will participate in prepping items to be cooked, take part in a shared meal and learn about aspects of ancestral foodways. In addition, participants will have the opportunity to work with plant relatives as they relate to the season. Participants will leave with recipes and surprise bonus materials for you to enjoy at home.
