Explore the flavor, creativity, and terroir of wild fruits with author, forager and wildcrafter\u00a0Pascal Baudar.<\/p>\n

Pascal will lead us on an exploration of the edible landscape including foraging, fermenting and making natural wine and ciders with wild fruits.<\/p>\n

Drawing on his bestselling books like The New Wildcrafted Cuisine<\/em>, The Wildcrafting Brewer<\/em>, and Wildcrafted Fermentation<\/em>, as well as his deep engagement with local terroir, Baudar will showcase how sometimes under-appreciated native, non-native and invasive fruits can be preserved, fermented, brewed, and crafted into vinegars, sodas, condiments, and libations.<\/p>\n

These creations capture the terroir\u2019s true flavor\u2014revealing how even the humblest wild berry or seed can evoke a sense of place, enrich palates, and support environmental stewardship through sustainable harvesting.<\/p>\n
