Bill Riley Trail | Des Moines, IA

Join local forager, Lindsey Coyne for a stroll down the Bill Riley Trail 10-11AM. We will meet at the trailhead near the Greenwood Park/ Ashworth Pool Parking lot (102 45th St, Des Moines, IA 50312) at the very end of the road.
We will discuss foraging safely, laws for foraging and Lindsey will identify many edible spring plants and ephemerals, as well as identifiable mushrooms and trees. Bring your Iowa plant questions!
I hope to continue to offer these walks as a donation based resource for our community. I want foraging to be accessible to everyone who wants to learn.
Suggested donation: $15-$35 per person
