- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 04 Apr, 2026 at 10:00 am (-05:00)
- **Event Description**: Get a look at some of the plants which would have been eaten and used by indigenous peoples on Saturday, April 4th, at Poverty Point World Heritage Site. A 1.5 mile ranger-led hike will take visitors through a portion of the earthworks with a focus on useful native plants. This event begins at 10 a.m. 

With no modern conveniences available 3,500 years ago, the people who created Poverty Point lived a very different existence. This group of hunter-gatherers did not grow their own food. Instead, they relied on the surrounding environment as both their supermarket and their pharmacy. This edition of the forager hike will focus on items available during the spring. Be aware that this event is weather permitting and visitors should wear appropriate hiking clothing. 

Poverty Point World Heritage Site offers visitors the unique opportunity to experience and learn about the earthworks and those individuals who raised them from the ground between the years of 1700 and 1100 BCE.  The $6 admission fee provides access to the museum, film theatre, hiking trail, driving tour, and any interpretive events taking place at the site. Seniors have a discounted $4 admission fee, and children 6 and under are admitted free. Ranger-guided Tram tours are offered Wed-Sun for $4 per person, but no charge for those 6 and under.

Poverty Point is located at 6859 HWY 577, Pioneer LA 71266. The park is open daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. For additional information, call 888.926.5292 toll free or 926.5492 locally or follow Poverty Point World Heritage Site on Facebook.
