Encore Presentation: “Sugar & Spice: A Global History”

Wednesday, January 8, 2025 07:00 PM - 09:00 PM

Join us live on YouTube for an encore presentation of November's "Sugar & Spice: A Global History." Pumpkin pie, gingerbread, mulled cider - these are just a few of the spiced sweet treats that dominate the fall and holiday season in America. But where do all these foods come from? And how did tropical plants like nutmeg and sugarcane end up on American shores? Join speaker Sarah Wassberg Johnson for a deep dive into the global history of the spice trade, the sugar trade, and the development of our favorite holiday foods. We'll premiere the recording live on our YouTube channel, with the speaker, Sarah Wassberg Johnson, replying to comments and questions live throughout the program.
