About the Event
Spring is bursting with edible treasures, from tender greens to delicate flowers. Through hands-on activities and mindful exploration, you’ll learn how to safely identify and harvest delicious wild plants, explore creative ways to use them, and maybe even take some home for supper.
We’ll discuss the ethics of foraging, the wisdom of the Honorable Harvest, and the joy of forming a reciprocal relationship with the land. Whether you’re here to nourish your body, spark curiosity, or simply soak up nature’s beauty, you’re invited to join us. No experience needed—just bring your sense of wonder.
Please contact us before class if mobility accommodations may be needed.
