Spring is here, and you want to taste it! If you are new to spring foraging or are ready to add new locations or a longer season to your existing experience, this month’s program is for you. Author Langdon Cook will present a “patch to plate” slideshow with tips for planning a successful foray and cooking your catch. Questions and answers and book signing to follow.
Langdon Cook is a writer, instructor, and lecturer on wild foods and the outdoors. His books include Upstream: Searching for Wild Salmon, from River to Table, a finalist for the Washington State Book Award; The Mushroom Hunters: On the Trail of an Underground America, winner of the 2024 Pacific Northwest Book Award; and Fat of the Land; Adventures of a 21st Century Forager, which the Seattle Times called “lyrical, practical, and quixotic.” Cook’s work has been nominated for two James Beard Awards, a Society for Environmental Journalists award, and a Pushcart Prize. He has been profiled in Bon Appetite, WSJ magazine, Whole Living, and Salon.com. His writing appears in numerous magazines, newspapers, and online journals, including National Geographic Travel, Outside, Eating Well, Gray’s Sporting Journal, and Seattle Magazine, where he was a regular columnist for a decade.
