Acorns aren’t just for the squirrels, you know:  Join RIPE Altadena and native plant expert Orchid Black  (which is a great name for a plant expert) as she presents valuable information on how to prepare acorns for food in a Feb. 27 workshop.

Learn how to identify the best oak species for food and storage, learn how to leach and grind flour, and in the end eat acorn cornbread.

The workship costs $10 and runs from 1:30-4:30 PM at the Pasadena Seventh day Adventist Church, 1280 E Washington,  Pasadena.  To register, contact Gail at 626-689-0593.
