The Local Food and Farm Co-ops (LFFC) is hosting an Indigenous-led Foodways workshop series on September 7 and 8, 2022.

The two-part hands-on train-the-trainer series will provide historical traditional teachings while also walking participants through recipe development and food prep.

Workshop 1: Fish and baby food (September 7th)
Workshop 2: Berries and wild game (September 8th)

The series is led by LFFC’s Indigenous Relations Coordinator, Arlene Meekis-Jung.

The online interactive sessions are for:

First Nations, Métis, Inuit peoples interested in learning hands-on food skills and traditional teachings to then share with their communities
Co-op members or volunteers wanting to host workshops and learn skills to teach others
Organizations who host food workshops, seeking to incorporate traditional foods
Individuals interested in learning more about traditional food preparation methods
Community members in using traditional methods looking to incorporate regional foods (especially if you’re based in Northwest ON and are in ordering range of the #LFFCmember AgriTech North in Dryden)
