Wild Edible & Medicinal Herb Walk

Just a few steps outside your door lies a world of plants waiting to be discovered! Kelley Robie of Horsetail Herbs will guide you on this introduction to identifying common and abundant “weeds” that make some of our very best wild foods and medicines. Here in Vermont, we can find dozens of nutritious and healing plants to incorporate into our meals for at least half of the year! We will identify local plant species, discuss parts of the plants used, when to harvest them, and even do some taste-testing. You will go home with wild food recipes galore and a new appreciation for Vermont’s local wild plants. Local eating is at its best, both fresh and free. Preregistration is required, so don’t miss out!
