Field Trip Highlights:

On February 23rd, as part of the D.O.P.E + conference, we are excited to extend a special invitation to 25 attendees to join us for a day of exploration. For $12.50, you'll have the chance to connect with like-minded individuals, learn from the incredible Chef Tanya in a hands-on cooking class, and share a delicious meal you prepare together. This isn't just a cooking class; it's an opportunity for informal discussions that relate to the conference. Share your insights, connect with your fellow food enthusiasts.
