Marc Dunham, Chef
Director of Culinary Arts at Francis Tuttle Technology Center
Host of Oklahoma Cooks on KSBI
You may recognize Marc from the show Oklahoma Cooks on KSBI. Marc travels around the state in search of people who are passionate about food and sharing their stories, techniques, and recipes from the kitchen. Marc is a natural born teacher and looks beyond just the cooking aspects of food. He is concerned about healthy foods and local access to those foods. I consider him the most knowledgeable Chef in Oklahoma when it comes to wild foods.

Ken Conway Ph. D., Mycology
Retired Professor, Oklahoma State University
We are thrilled Professor Conway will be speaking. For all of you shroomers out there this is your chance to listen to and ask questions of Professor Conway. He has graced our Oklahoma Wildcrafting with his knowledge and we are so grateful he spends time with us. I met Professor Conway through my oldest daughter. I feel there are no chance meetings. I have never seen another open meeting where one of our mycology experts here in Oklahoma have spoke and took questions. Now is your chance.
Jenny Faith Mansell, Herbalist
Prairie Balm Herbals
Duncan, Oklahoma
One of my favorite herbalist will be speaking on Backyard Herbalism. When it come to practicing what you preach, it is Jenny. Herbs are a part of her families everyday life and she utilizes many wild herbs. So if you want to know what is growing in your backyard and what to do with it in Oklahoma, you won't want to miss her speak. Jenny is also a forager for wild foods in Oklahoma.
