It's Zuni Fair week! We're excited to announce that ZYEP will bring seed-saving activities, recipes and a hands-on pickling demonstration to the last day of the fair, Sunday, Oct. 4. Our free station will feature seed-saving education and activities, garden recipes to share, and even a hands-on pickling demonstration. We'll have plenty of cucumbers, brine and dill on hand so you can chop your own cucumbers, add them to the brine and take the jars home.This is just the beginning of our food sovereignty team's busy fall season, which includes an expanded Family Cook Night series, the final phase of our apprentice-family pilot project and plenty of harvest activity in local gardens.Read more here: www.zyep.org/zuni-youth-enrichment-project-plans-food-sovereignty-activities-for-oct-4-zuni-fair-...
