About the Event
We get it: You walk into a park (or even your own backyard) and would like to snack on wild food Mother Nature provides, but everything just looks like a wall of green. How can you differentiate tasty edibles from plants that might make you sick?
Through playful activities, you will learn patterns that help quickly sift through all that vegetation and reveal the wild edibles in your area.
You are invited no matter your level of outdoor experience. All are welcome.
Please contact us before class if mobility accommodations may be needed—we will cover quite a bit of ground during the class.
Yummy snacks generously provided by New Pioneer Co-op.
