Wild Adventures: Kid-Focused Foraging Workshop

Foraging workshop for kids and their grown-ups! Get ready for a sensory deep dive into the wild edible world. You will have the chance to explore a display of over 200 wild edible plants and mushrooms, learn the best-of-the-best in each food category (greens, veggies, fruits, spices, sweeteners, teas, grains, mushrooms, etc.), and participate in a variety of group activities that sharpen observation, communication , and stewardship skills. We’ll discuss our most poisonous species and other safety concerns; talk about native and invasive plants and why that matters; show-and-tell our favorite wild edibles; and do a lot of tasting/smelling/moving/laughing/singing/sharing throughout the day. Content and delivery is geared toward kids, but my intention is for both kids and adults to be enjoying themselves thoroughly and LEARNING A TON! Open to ages 6 through 12 and their parent/caregiver. For older kids or solo adults, I suggest my intensive on Sat. Oct 3rd. Sliding scale payment $75-$125/family. Registration, here.
