Discover the magic of foraging in Kingston with Foraging for the Seasons, a captivating program led by Sheila Nemcsok that promises to unveil the culinary treasures of the changing seasons. Nemcsok will guide participants through a captivating journey that combines interactive, indoor classroom learning with hands-on exploration outside the Isabel Turner Branch. Attendees will leave each session with a deeper appreciation for nature, and practical know-how on how to incorporate these culinary treasures into their diets.
