Eclectic Foraging: A Beginner's Guide
Mya Reinert will be guiding you on your discovery into forging from our natural world!
In this beginner foraging class we will be covering the basics of plant and mushroom knowledge, identification, tree identification and the different natural terrains and ecosystems that exist and coexist in the local spaces around us.
In these introduction classes we will discover local known and unknown plants and how to differentiate them from harmful look-alike plants; We will discover easy ways to identify different types of trees and terrain types that coincide with them, and we will discover more insight into the growth, sustainability, and uses of these abundant plants from our natural world.
We will learn how to incorporate them into everyday life, witchcraft and other practices that have included them in the past, and ways to properly forage for these specific herbs, mushrooms, and more whilst still allowing them to provide for the ecosystem. And most importantly, we will understand how to be responsibly sustainable whilst harvesting so that we can continue to do so for years and years to come.
Mya hopes that these introduction classes help to spark inspiration into exploring our world and helping the ecosystems grow and flourish. Also helping to expand your knowledge about the ecosystems that make up our backyards and create a backbone of knowledge to carry on as our ancestors once did through these same safe practices and landscapes.
Join her in learning about all of this and more!
