WILD EDIBLE, MEDICINAL, AND USEFUL PLANTS

WILD EDIBLE, MEDICINAL, AND USEFUL PLANTS
From food to medicine to utilitarian uses, this outing is all about plants. The outing starts with an easy-rated walkabout to identify and explore some of the common local plants and their uses, and will include a harvest or sampling of the edible ones. Proper harvesting techniques and ethics are also covered.
Additionally, you will have the opportunity to make and take home a plant salve, use natural plant fiber to make cordage/rope, and simply get an overall ethnobotanical understanding of some common plants.
This class is presented in an easy-paced way, allowing time to fully understand the gifts the plant world provides.
