Wildflower and Weeds Foraging Walk with Cara-Lee Langston on April 13, 2024
15 in stock
Description
Learn to identify wild edible and medicinal plants growing in springtime in our bountiful Southern Appalachia landscape.
Discover naturalized and invasive species of wild foods and herbs favored by modern-day foragers for sustainability. We will contrast these with endemic, ephemeral botanicals we strive to preserve and protect, such as ramps, bloodroot, trout lily, and trillium.
As we end the walk, we’ll taste freshly harvested wild greens, a wild-inspired beverage, and a tasty treat made with locally harvested ingredients.
Don’t miss this fantastic opportunity to ramble in the mountains surrounded by vibrant spring wildflowers!
You’ll meet Cara at a location near downtown Clayton, (Rabun County) Georgia and caravan to a nearby trail. Carpooling is encouraged due to limited parking at the trailhead.
