# Event Details - **Event Name**: Eco-Friendly Foraging - Plants Walk / Wild Food Tasting & Drinks - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 11 Apr, 2026 at 10:00 am – Sat, 11 Apr, 2026 at 02:00 pm (-07:00) - **Event Description**: Learn about local edible and medicinal plantsAbout this EventWant to learn about edible plants and help the environment in the process? Did you know what we are surrounded by wild edible plants and most of them are non-native to Los Angeles and often invasive?Very often the same plants are crops in some other countries and yet, locally, the solution is to spray them with chemicals or waste this incredible food resource by uprooting and throwing it away. So sad when you realize that a recent study from the University of California Berkeley identified 52 edible weeds growing in abundance in the poorest neighborhoods of San Francisco. At least six of them were found to be more nutritious than kale, according to that study. Guess what, we'll find most of those nutritious plants during our walk. So let's look at an option that will help the environment, reduce the use of chemicals in nature and nourish us in the process. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/bfc23000-2c01-11f1-adf0-4de4cd755510-rimg-w740-h740-dc462f2d-gmir.jpg In this class, you'll learn about the countless local plants that you can use for food, many of them can be found in your backyard and are considered W**d. .We will walk in the local forest (private property in the Angeles Forest), identify and talk about the culinary and medical uses of those plants. The walk is around 1 1/2 hours, very slow with lots of stops to talk about and collect the plants. We'll also talk about native plants, their uses and which ones you could plant at home. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/c02b03f0-2c01-11f1-adf0-4de4cd755510-rimg-w1109-h740-dc171817-gmir.jpg Wild food is gourmet food!

He has been featured in numerous TV shows and publications, including Time magazine, the Los Angeles Times, L.A. Weekly, and the New York Times.\r\n \r\nIn 2014, he was named one of the 25 most influential tastemakers in L.A. by Los Angeles magazine and in 2017 as offering one of the most innovative culinary classes.\r\n \r\nHe is the author of 3 books - The New Wildcrafted Cuisine, The Wildcrafting Brewer and Wildcrafted Fermentation (available at the end of 2019). Both published books became amazon bestsellers in several categories. \r\n \r\nHis next project is related to using wildcrafting and art as tools to explore environmental issues by focusing on invasive and noxious plants with the concept of making food part of the solutions being offered - Not just herbicides or throwing away the resources (food waste), \r\n \r\nPascal also offers classes and workshops about wild edibles and their culinary/medicinal uses. \r\n \r\n \r\n " } ] } ] ```
