NATURE WALK SCHEDULE
I offer nature walks to both public and private audiences, where I discuss the use of wild
plants as food and medicine. As an herbalist, and as a human, I particularly delight in harvesting foods and medicines from
the wild.
The following schedule is a work in progress. It should be completed by the end of January. Until then the
dates are very subject to change. I lead walks rain or shine.
For most walks I only collect a voluntary contribution. This
year I will also have some workshops, for which there will be set fees. These workshops will be hands-on learning experiences.
You will learn many more details of identification than on my "normal" walks. You will also harvest, prepare, and eat some
wild foods and teas.
