You’re likely familiar with the term "coniferous." It describes trees that produce seed-bearing cones and have needle-like leaves that are usually (but not always!) evergreen. 

Many of us colloquially refer to all conifers as “pines,” but true pines are actually their own category among coniferous trees, distinct from spruces, firs, cedars, and others. All of these trees extend meandering branches through our human story, but like knowing how to tell a pine from a fir, we’re not as attuned as we once were. Let’s take a walk outside, pick up a branch, and renew our awareness together.

In this class, we’ll cover identification and ecology of conifers while engaging old relationships through responsible foraging and wildcrafting. 

Starting in the field, we’ll practice differentiating common conifer species while discussing their roles in the ecosystem, traditional uses, and some of the fraught history between humans and these ancient trees. 

We’ll then move to the kitchen, where we’ll sample conifer tea, learn how to prepare aromatic needle smudges, and look into other simple applications for needles and bark, celebrating the ways we can incorporate these trees into our daily routines.

Join us to deepen your appreciation, your awe, and your knowledge for the ubiquitous conifers. We'll pay homage to these trees for both the lessons they offer us and the local resources they provide, inviting us to live in closer relationship with the land.
