About the event
Edible & Medicinal Plant Walk
We'll walk along one of the best Trout and Salmon rivers in eastern North America while identifying a range of edible, medicinal, and toxic plants (and maybe a few fungi!). I encourage people to use ALL their senses in plant identification, and so we'll touch, smell, and even taste a few.
This site is a well-maintained trail over flat terrain; there are a few wet spots, but boots are not usually needed. The workshop goes rain or shine (within reason) and is limited to 20 people to ensure a quality experience. This event is free and part of the Up West Forest Fest; registration is required via this link: https://upwestforestfest.wordpress.com/walk7-edible-and-medicinal-plants-walk/
