As a part-time resident of Colorado’s North Fork Valley three months out of each year, master canner, gardener and author Eugenia Bone knows the lay of the land. The rest of her time is spent in the fast-paced world of New York City, a place where she has become a master at adapting her country-living culinary skills to big-city life. In tonight’s Perpetual Pantry program and lecture at the Denver Botanic Gardens, Bone will share her knowledge of food preservation and home canning.
“She really focuses on what you can do in small batches using recipes that actually use the small-batch preservation things that you’ve created during the growing season,” says the Gardens’ Sarah Spearman. Bone’s lecture comes in advance of the release of her new book, The Kitchen Ecosystem, which began as a lecture she did at the Gardens five years ago.
The event, which includes the lecture, a social hour and a tasting of locally sourced food hosted by Slow Food Denver, begins at 6 p.m. at the DBG, 1007 York Street. Tickets, $15 to $20, are available at 720-865-3580 or botanicgardens.org. Bone’s last lecture sold out, so advance registration is recommended.
