“In my early years of motherhood I dug deep, remembering what my mother prepared and cooked for her 5 children at various stages, all two years apart. We lived on a dairy farm. We started out with raw milk and foods that were either grown or preserved by Ma; breads that were made twice a week, teething biscuits with fennel seed, and white wine… and we are all healthy. It was tradition to have our first taste of wine at 40 days old…!”

Baby Food 101:
Organic Spring Baby Food with Rosa Galeno
This workshop has been cancelled; we hope to reschedule so please check back with us in the near future! Thanks, SEMAP
Course Overview
This class will introduce everyone to what Baby Food is all about:
- What vegetables work best
- Best options for ingredients
- See current equipment on the market with demonstration
- Discuss best options for containers and how to think out of the box when prepping the foods
You will be amazed at how much can be prepped in one simple hour for your baby.
The idea is to cook foods that your children will eat. They eventually grow into eating variety; it happens naturally.
Eating is based on flavor- so we will discuss what natural ingredients may blend and create a palliative food that your baby and you can agree on. Digestive systems need to develop so we need to see what a baby can digest.
I will also share my own experiences and concerns as a young mother with now some 21 plus years experience—happy to share what I have learned and still learning.
Enrich the pallet with flavors that kids will grow into long after the age groups have passed. And one day when someone asks them what their favorite vegetable is, they may answer, "Brussels sprouts" like my kids do!
Cost: $25 per person, $20 for SEMAP Members.
Note: Workshop participants should bring containers to take the food they make home with them.
Limited to 15 parcipants.
