About this episode
"The Ancestral Kitchen Challenge is here to spark your creative fire!" Andrea We are excited to announce the Ancestral Kitchen Challenge! This challenge is designed to spark excitement and creativity in your kitchen and hopefully push you in a few areas to try something new or revisit something long forgotten. You can adjust every challenge to suit your unique kitchen, family and region! In this episode Andrea and Alison discuss the 22 different challenge topics that are covered during the year, what sparked them and some different ways they could be imagined.
