Where: Kalamazoo Valley Culinary and Allied Health Building, 418 E Walnut St, Kalamazoo, MI 49007, USA

Each month, our culinary team selects an item from a local farmer to feature for a session of exploration. This month's feature is the ramp, or allium tricoccum. This peppery wild edible, commonly known as wild leeks, is a favorite of foragers in the Northeast. Its unique growth habit keeps it elusive in Michigan's forests. Join Chef Russell Barrett to learn the various ways to prepare, cook and enjoy the bounty of Michigan's produce! Participants will be treated to tastings of the plant in a foraged salad, pickled, in pesto, in compound butter or dried as a year-round seasoning.
