Join Naturalist, Jazmen Yoder on a day of foraging out in the woods. This course will take place on private and public property near Maple Falls. The first part of class will be a walk in the woods foraging for various edible plants and mushrooms.
For each species, we’ll talk about how to identify it, it’s edibility or medicinal properties, how to prepare it for medicine or food, and how we could use it in our meal later. Expect moderate walking/hiking with frequent stops, self-led exploration, and a lesson in ethical foraging on public lands. In the second portion of this course, we will build a fire and cook together with the plants we foraged. Using unique recipes, we’ll combine our efforts in producing beautiful culinary arts with a campfire and cast iron.
These classes are offered on several dates and as the month progresses, new plants will become available. Thus, each course aims to incorporate different recipes and ingredients. Please register via the event website.
