Come learn about deliciously healthy snacks you can make at home! Forget the processed foods that surround our everyday lives and start consuming healthy snacks that not only fill you up, but support healthy digestion, produce healthy skin and nails, plus so much more. In class, we will sample homemade granola, healthy homemade chocolate, and fruit leather. We will also make a date and nut energy bar and naturally fermented salsa in class to taste and take home.
