Miche Genest
Miche Genest is the author of the northern cookbooks, The Boreal Gourmet and The Boreal Feast, and writes food columns for North of Ordinary magazine, What’s Up Yukon and Edible Alaska. It’s safe to say that plants changed her life, more than once. She is deeply grateful to the Indigenous peoples who have stewarded these lands for millennia.

Living With Plants Writing Workshop
Our lives are profoundly intertwined with those of plants, trees and fungi. Everyone has a plant story—perhaps the first time you picked a dandelion, or the smell of lilies at your grandma’s funeral, or the electrifying taste of a soapberry right off the bush. In this workshop, we’ll gather words and ideas from selected readings before exploring our own plant stories in a guided writing session. There will be an opportunity to share your work, if you like. Please bring writing materials.
