Introduction to Foraging
Welcome to the world of wild edible food! Gathering or foraging
for food has become a trendy new pastime – it is also one of the oldest
and primal relationships between us and the natural world. It is a great
way to connect with nature and something primal within us. Wild food is
often a more healthy and nutritious alternative, and can be much richer
in essential vitamins and minerals.
Join us on our newest edible
adventure! We’ll take a nature walk, meeting several edible and
medicinal wild plants, covering best practices, edible/medicinal uses,
identification, harvesting and preparation tips. Our adventure will end
with a scrumptious tasting where we’ll sample several of the plants we
meet. Our menu will include a wild soup, wild ice cream, fruit leather,
pickles and more!
