About the Event

How did our ancestors thrive in the Midwest on seemingly so little available food? During this series, you will learn how to walk into any Midwest landscape and confidently find edible berries, nuts, greens and mushrooms.

Recipes, informational handouts and book recommendations will be provided during each class.

Classes in this series happen Wednesdays at 6:00 pm.

  • May 18: Meet New Edible Friends - Let's make finding wild food easier.

  • Jun 29: Early Summer Forage - Practice finding yummy greens and berries through playful activities.

  • Aug 3: Forage for Primitive Fire - Fire-making is a fundamental survival skill that will boost your confidence and increase your enjoyment when hiking and camping.
