Dal Bhat, Achaar & Gundruk: A Nepali Kitchen at Kindness Farm
🌻 EVENT DETAILS:
Join Nirmala and Jayanika for a day of harvesting, cooking, and sharing at the farm.
Together we'll make achaar (pickle), learn about gundruk (fermented greens), and prepare a shared meal of dal bhat (rice and lentils).
We'll harvest seasonal produce, spend some time tending the fields, and make achaar using fresh ingredients from the farm. As we gather, chop, and temper spices, we'll talk about preservation, seasonal cooking, and how fermentation has long been part of everyday life in Nepali and South Asian kitchens.
We'll also explore gundruk, a beloved Nepali fermented green often made from mustard or cauliflower greens. We'll talk about how it's made, when it's prepared, and why families have been making it for generations.
🥘 After cooking together, we'll gather around the table for a shared vegetarian and vegan meal of dal bhat with seasonal saag, gundruk, and achaar
🫙You'll leave with a large fermentation jar and recipes to continue experimenting at home!

🚙 PARKING
Please park on the farm side of the street anywhere up or down the street. Do NOT park on the grass across the street from the farm (you will see "No Parking" signs). This is important for safety vehicles to pass through. We reserve 2 driveway parking spots (in the gravel, on the right) for folks with accessibility needs.
🌼 ACCESSIBILTY INFORMATION
Venue is not certified ADA accessible. The farm's bathroom is not technically ADA accessible, but has been used by folks with wheelchairs. The majority of the farm itself is accessible, though not all parts are (we have some narrow pathways). Note that we use woodchips for the majority of our pathways.
