About the event
We'll walk through field edges, forests and wetlands at the Harvey Moore Wildlife Sanctuary while identifying a range of edible and medicinal plants (and maybe a few mushrooms). I encourage people to use ALL their senses in plant identification, so we'll touch, smell, and even taste a few. This is a great time of year to find Lady's Slippers, and there's always some at this site so be sure to bring a camera!
This site is mostly flat terrain with some wooden boardwalks, bridges, and walkways over wet areas. Comfortable rubber boots or walking shoes you don't mind getting wet are recommended. This event goes rain or shine (within reason). Regisgration opens about a month before the event and will be limited to 18 people to ensure a quality experience.
