Discover nature's free grocery store! The forests and valleys of Southeastern Minnesota can provide a plethora of palatable plants and mushrooms. We'll learn the basics of how confidently and safely identify, gather and prepare some common edible species, then we will hit the trails! We will prepare some tasty treats using what we've gathered entirely on-site. It's fresh, local, organic, and fun! Be prepared to explore off-trail areas.

PLEASE NOTE: This class is designed for participants new to foraging, and will accordingly cover the basics of identifying wild edible plants and mushrooms.

This event is open to ages 12 and up.
