Join Dave Odd of Eat the Neighborhood and Rachel Osborn Mifsud of Will Forage for Food for Ecology for Foragers.
Ecology for Foragers will teach you to read the landscape around you. You’ll learn how soil, sunlight, moisture, trees, seasonal cycles, and successional cycles work together to reveal where edible plants and mushrooms thrive. We will spend time in a variety of different habitats learning to interpret the envitonment. And along the way we will discuss several important foraging topics, including plant and mushroom identification, safety, ethical harvesting, and sustainable foraging techniques.
This course is ideal for both beginners and experienced foragers who want to practice and sharpen their skills. While you are here, you will get the chance to taste several different wild foods in our meals. You will even harvest some of the ingredients yourself. (And if we are lucky we may even find a few morels!)
We will meet on Friday evening (6-9pm), all day Saturday (9am-9pm), and Sunday morning (9am-noon).
Cost: $250 per person. Price includes classes all 3 days, all materials, 5 gourmet quality meals (friday dinner, 3 meals saturday, and sunday breakfast), camping location (BYO tent/hammock/camper), and access to the lake (including kayaks and fishing poles) for the weekend.
