Northwest Natura Presents: Hiking with Curiosity - Edible Plant Identification in the Chuckanuts

Join Naturalist Jazmen Yoder on a hike along one of the Chuckanut Mountain trails to get outdoors in early spring. Learn the names and flavors of edible plants as we go. The trailhead is TBD based on abundant species. Expect some elevation gain but keep in mind we’ll be stopping frequently to botanize and learn about edible plant species. 

Things to bring with you to class: - Dress for the weather (warm outdoor clothing) - Hiking shoes - Snacks and water - Notebook and pen (optional) - Camera (optional) - Your favorite field guide (optional). 

Registered individuals will receive an email a few days prior to the event with driving directions, weather forecast, and a reminder of what to bring with you. Please register via the event website.

        We acknowledge that Whatcom County is located on the unceded territory of the Coast Salish Peoples. They cared for the lands that included what we’d call the Puget Sound region, Vancouver Island and British Columbia since time immemorial. This gives us the great obligation and opportunity to learn how to care for our surrounding areas and all the natural and human resources we require to live. We express our deepest respect and gratitude for our indigenous neighbors, the Lummi Nation and Nooksack Tribe, for their enduring care and protection of our shared lands and waterways.
