Low Tide Learning; Forager Foods

Pre Registration is required.

Are you curious about what lives below the tides? Want to know what’s safe to eat in an emergency situation (or a fun dinner party)? Join us for an exciting exploration of tidepools. We will explore how to identify and safely and respectfully harvest seaweeds and animals.
Space is limited to 15.

While everyone is welcome, please be aware there is steep hill down to the beach with a paved trail. Wear sturdy shoes that can get wet or rubber boots. The rocks will be slippery.

Location: Seal Rock State Park

Harvesting information: We will be identifying and tasting seaweeds and identifying shellfish in this class. If you wish to harvest shellfish, you must have an Oregon shellfish license. If you wish to harvest seaweed, we recommend you bring a pair of scissors and a bucket.

Accessibility information: Steep paved trail and cobbles before beach, some walking on slippery rocks.
