The Kootenay Society for Sustainable Living is teaming up with the Young Agrarians to host an event: For the Love of Bread!
We'll start with a tour of our Research & Demonstration mini-farm, then dive in to a mini-workshop focused on how we grow grains using the Grow Biointensive method.
Participants will learn how to start grains in flats, how to transplant in to the garden bed, how and when to harvest, how to thresh and winnow mature grains for storage, and finally how to mill grains to flour for making bread! (We'll even be including a simple and easy to make recipe for sourdough rye)
Following the tour and workshop we'll be hosting a potluck dinner, including sourdough bread made from grains grown on site!
