This gardening workshop will focus on the history, ease of growing, long-term value, nutrition, and cultural usefulness of several local crops. Paul Maschka will start with a look at how these crops have been compromised by industrial agriculture and contrast that with how traditional varieties sustained civilizations. The discussion and demonstrations will include: varieties of perennials and long-season kale and brazing greens; dried, green, and shelled beans; the ease of growing, long-storage capability, and high value of winter squash; varieties of sweet and flour corn; a look into the history of potatoes and sweet potatoes and why traditional varieties are super-foods; as well as the benefits and options for multiplying onions. Paul will finish the workshop with a cooking demonstration, which will provide you with options for quick healthy meals.
