Foraging 101 at Falling Creek Park

Learn what's edible in our local forests.

Come and learn common edible and medicinal plants that grow locally during the month of May, their benefits and various uses, share your own experiences, and meet other folks who are also interested in foraging!

Potluck style dinner at 6pm (bring a main or side dish and then plates/cups/silverware for yourselves) with instruction starting around 6:45pm led by P&R's Outdoor Event and Outreach Coordinator Lee Wittekind. Whether you want to know foods to eat in a survival situation, want a quick trail snack while hiking, or want to make a small meal, this class will get you started in safely identifying and preparing common plants in our area.

We will meet at Falling Creek Park inside the pavilion next to the playground. Families and children are encouraged!
