You are invited to join us for a day focused on our neighbors, the plants! Please come spend some time with us contemplating a deeper understanding of what plants provide in the Appalachians and how we can become better friends to the plants that feed us.
We're working with the Southern Appalachian Biosphere Region to hold a workshop on February 3rd at the Harrah's Cherokee Casino in Cherokee, NC. The workshop is about the somewhat-new science of "plant intelligence" and how it can help us to grow (and eat) better food in the mountains. We will explore contemporary science and old traditions. We'd like to invite you to join us for a day of fascinating presentations and robust discussions about our relationships with growing plants for food. The goal is for participants to leave with an enhanced understanding of the complex life of plants and how we can educate students and growers to awaken a new paradigm in Appalachian plant culture and value.
The details of the day will be sent as we get closer to February 3rd. We do require an RSVP, as participation is limited. RSVP by 1-12-25 to: amber@noquisi.org
