Maria Finn, Forage. Gather. Feast.
Saturday, October 26, 2024, 11:00 am - 11:45 am
Stop by the Foodwise Classroom for a cooking demo featuring the seasonal bounty of the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market, as part of the Ferry Building Mushroom Festival.
Maria Finn is the author of Forage. Gather. Feast: 100+ Recipes from West Coast Forests, Shores, and Urban Spaces (Sasquatch Books, 2024). She is an author, chef, and maker who lives on a houseboat in Sausalito, California, with her truffle dog, two tabby cats, and a native oyster garden. She creates food, art, and storytelling experiences inspired by ecosystems like kelp forests and redwood watersheds; her work explores themes like love, awe, desire, and grief in regard to our relationship with the natural world. She founded Flora & Fungi Adventures, where she hosts wild food-centric adventures in California all the way north to Alaska. Visit her at MariaFinn.com and follow her on Instagram @maria_finn1.
All demos take place in the Foodwise Classroom (under the tents in front of the Ferry Building) and are free to the public, with recipes and samples for all.
The demo will be followed by a book signing with book sales courtesy of Book Passage.
