☕☕☕
Since the earliest days of our human story, people living in temperate bioregions have looked to fall as a time of harvest.
Lingering fruits and calorie-rich nuts share the landscape with medicinal flowers, roots, and bark, all offering important sustenance for the impending winter. As the days darken and summer winds down, it's a time to cherish the final cadence of the growing season; for land-based people, it's also a serious time, busy with gathering, curing, processing, preserving, and ensuring enough provisions for the lean season. There is no shortage of foods, medicines, and other gifts from the land to gather humbly and gratefully at this time.
Whether you are interested in wild foods, local plants and ecology, or alternative uses for plants through wildcrafting and medicine, you're invited to join our Early Fall Forging Walk, taking place Sunday, October 5th from 10am to 12pm.
Along the way, we will spend time paying tribute to our long shared history with plants, looking beyond the question of "what can I eat?" on the landscape. We will also emphasize ethical foraging and ways of giving back to the land from which we’re taking–reinforcing how thinking like an ecosystem should guide the practice of gathering wild foods.
Beginners and experienced foragers are welcome.
