Wild Spring Greens Pesto Making Workshop: 2-4pm in the Garden, Kitchen and Art Room

The warmer spring weather has brought an abundance of wild edible spring greens to the garden at the Salisbury centre. Join Hannah Brazil and Gray Davis for a relaxed afternoon learning all about how to identify, harvest and process them and make a wild greens pesto to take home.

The pesto will be vegan and nut and gluten free.
