- **Event Name**: Native and Nourishing: A Foraging Workshop
- **Event Start and End Date**: Tue, 31 Mar, 2026 at 05:30 pm (-06:00)
- **Event Description**: As part of the Library’s Community Read, step outside and explore the edible landscape around you in this foraging workshop inspired by "Lab Girl" and the NEA Big Read theme Our Nature. On Thursday, March 31 from 5:30 to 7:00 PM, participants will learn how to identify, gather, and thoughtfully use native edible and medicinal plants growing right here in Wyoming.

Led by Leah Burback of Heirloom and Native, this program begins with an introduction to identifying Rocky Mountain plants by leaf structure and other botanical features. Then, weather permitting, we’ll head outdoors for a guided foraging walk to put that knowledge into practice. You’ll learn how to distinguish look-alikes, recognize seasonal growth patterns, and understand how native plants fit into the broader ecosystem.

In "Lab Girl", Hope Jahren reminds us that resilience begins with paying attention to the living world around us. Foraging is one way to deepen that awareness — to see the landscape not just as scenery, but as a community of species with stories, uses, and roles. This workshop highlights the kind of practical knowledge that connects us to place and builds confidence rooted in understanding, not extraction.

This event is open to adults. A signed waiver is required for participation in the outdoor portion of the program. Please dress for the weather and be prepared for light walking on natural terrain. Call 577.7323 for more information, or visit https://natronacountylibrary.libcal.com/event/16134460
