Plant walks are excellent learning opportunities for those with beginning to intermediate foraging skills, and for anyone wishing to increase their knowledge of the local flora. Our discussion will include information about identification, methods of harvest, preparation, and use. We will explore the area and chose around 20-25 edible, medicinal, or otherwise useful plants and mushrooms to focus on.
Cost: $25. You can prepay at https://www.willforageforfood.com/store/p/plant-and-mushroom-walk or pay cash at the walk
Kids under 12 are free with paid adult. Walks are almost never cancelled due to weather (one time in 12 years), so dress accordingly. We will be mostly on trails, no need to dress for bushwhacking. (I often am in shorts and even barefoot.) You may want to bring a notebook, camera, and water. No other gear is required.
