Greetings!
We hope you had a lovely spring break. We are looking forward to starting things up again and meeting you tomorrow. If you cannot attend tomorrow, please email me and Ted. We will be doing some walking between location, so please dress warmly for a 10-minute walk outside.
Where we will meet: This week we start in the greenhouse and have class / lunch in the Dinsdale Learning Center.
* We will begin class in the greenhouse this week to start some additional seeds. We have several plants lined up for this. We may need to pot plants that are too crowded as well. * We will make quick work of this so that we can walk over to the Dinsdale Learning Center (the library on East Campus) where we will meet with Dr. Gabriel Bruguier and Dr. Toni Anaya. They have a fun, interactive and important session set up to help you research traditional foods with credible information sources. If you can, bring along a traditional food from your tribe that you would like to research. If you can’t think of one, ask a family member. * We will have lunches ready for you at the Dinsdale Learning Center.
Before Class: Try to think of a traditional food from your family that you can research. There is no reading assignment this week, but by all means, keep reading the book! We will continue to weave in chapters when we can.
Schedule for what we will be doing:
* 9am: Meet at the greenhouse to check on your plants, start some more seeds and pot plants that need additional room * 10:20 am: Walk to the Dinsdale Learning Center * 10:30 AM: Research traditional foods with Drs. Bruguier and Anaya * 11:50/noon: Lunch & Pick Up
Kind regards, Louise
