BIO:

JENNIFER HAHN

With 26 years of wilderness travel under hull--including her solo kayak from Ketchikan, Alaska to Bellingham, Washington over two springs and summers--Jennifer Hahn relies on wildharvesting to keep her kayak light. SEATTLE TIMES/PACIFIC NORTHWEST MAGAZINE featured her in "Wildharvest Feast: Where the Wild Things Are."  

Jennifer's award-winning book "SPIRITED WATERS: SOLOING SOUTH THROUGH THE INSIDE PASSAGE" won accolades for adventure narrative writing. Jennifer founded Elakah! Kayak Expeditions in 1989 and has led natural history and kayak trips in Washington, Canada, Alaska, Baja and the Galapagos. Jennifer and Mac Smith's NEW BOOK:  THE WILD TABLE celebrating sustainable Pacific Coast foraging and cuisine will debut in August. 

PRESENTATION DESCRIPTION:

PACIFIC WILD FOOD FORAGING: Sustainable, Healthy and Delicious  

You'll learn all about wildharvesting ecologically from beach to sea. Identify sea veggies, beach plants and shellfish that are safe to eat. Discover First Nation Uses and sustainable harvesting techniques. Hahn's inspiring, humorous, and natural-history-packed slideshow includes a taste of Chocolate Ocean Pudding thickened with carrageen-rich Turkish Towel seaweed. So come feast on flotsam! Jennifer will sign copies of her award-winning book, now in paperback: "SPIRITED WATERS: Soloing South Through the Inside Passage" afterwards.
