Wild Edible Plant Walk & Feast October 7, 2010

Ever tasted the leaves of Meadow Beauty? Ever tried the fruit of the pickerelweed? Every season brings a different bounty of wild foods to harvest. In this class, we will delve into the wild tastes of autumn plants. We will experience a number of the edible wildflowers, berries, fruits, shrubs and trees that are common to the Piedmont. We will gather and prepare a small feast from the landscape around us and celebrate the diversity of our local edible plants.
