April 4th Cacao Lunch!

I brought back some really special cacao from Costa Rica’s Talamanca mountains and I want to share it with you! 

Join me for a sweet and connective morning. We’ll learn a bit about cacao history, taste the earthy, organic cacao, and end with a delicious Heart Food Song lunch!

It’s going to be fun!

***A quick note: This is not a cacao ceremony. It’s more about sharing curiosity, appreciation, and explorations of this incredible food. You are welcome to bring your own cacao research, thoughts, and discoveries.***
