This interactive “food lab” will provide an opportunity to learn and share skills for plant-based diets. Research shows that a largely plant-based diet is best for the climate and health, so let’s learn together how to make this way of eating a delicious communal experience.

 

Meat eaters are most welcome. This is an inclusive event where those of us who are simply curious, transitioning, or plant-based food jedis can all come together to eat tasty food, learn new tricks, and explore a path of just and thriving foodways.

 

I ask everyone to bring a prepared plant-based dish. It may include the glorious produce of late Spring, the mysteries of aquafaba, vegan wine and cheese, plant-based meat alternatives, something takeout or a favorite treat like vegan jerky– whatever inspires you. We’ll eat “tiny-tapas” style so that everyone can have a bite of this and that.

 

Please come with your questions, favorite hacks, and tasty treats. 

​

This lab is on a Thursday, the same day as the nearby organic Berkeley Farmer's market (Shattuck @ Rose 3pm-7pm).
