World festival tables

Harvest Table / Thanksgiving

Late Sep – Nov

A meat-free harvest feast built on squash, wild rice and apples — with a Vata-friendly warm drink instead of wine.

December

Rich enough to feel festive, light enough for elder digestion; serve the lasagne at lunch, not late at night.

March – April

Green and light for Kapha season — asparagus, peas, herbs, lemon and spelt.

June – July

Cooling Pitta lunch outdoors in the shade; everything at room temperature, nothing iced.

Any season

For mixed families and visiting groups: one plate that bridges both kitchens.
