This beginner-friendly class is perfect for those new to foraging or anyone looking to hang out with like-minded individuals that love and appreciate nature. Together\, we’ll learn all about foraging safely for common\, edible mushrooms and plants. \nWhat to Expect\n\nInteractive Education: Start with an engaging presentation discussing everything you need to know to get started foraging. We’ll discuss foraging basics\, identification tips\, cooking & preservation techniques\, safety\, technology\, and more. Get hands-on with fresh examples (if available) to practice identifying key features before we head out to the forest.\nForest Exploration: Wander through a portion of the 1000 acres of woods at Big Rock Creek as we search for edible plants and mushrooms. While mushroom and plant growth varies with the environment\, we can never guarantee what or how much variety will be found – although we will be hunting in an area that has been known to produce mushrooms and edible plants. The real reward is the knowledge you’ll gain to forage confidently on your own. We will also be identifying important trees along the way.\nPotential Finds: Depending on the spring weather\, this could be slightly early for mushrooms. However\, this is the perfect time to find delicious and nutritious springtime plants to harvest\, which could include ramps\, fiddleheads\, watercress\, nettle and more. We will hope for mushrooms like oysters\, morels\, pheasant back and more! This class is unique from others due to the fact that we will be able to harvest edible plants since we are on private property! Most public land does not allow harvesting of plants.\nCommunity and Sharing: Bring home any mushrooms or plants we find! If we find enough\, we’ll divide them evenly to ensure everyone leaves with a treat.\nGear Up: Browse foraging essentials like mushroom knives\, books\, and other tools available for purchase.\n\nApproximate Itinerary\n1:00-2:00 – Educational Presentation\n2:00-2:30 – Break & Gear Shopping\n2:30-4:00 – Foraging Adventure\n4:00-4:30 – Group Review & Q&A \n\nImportant Details\n\nWho Can Join: Anyone that is able to walk slowly through the woods\, over uneven terrain\, for up to two hours is welcome.
