Itinerary
heres some more information:
I’m your guide, Willow (she/her/hers). I’ll take you out through the fields and forests to find edible and medicinal plants and mushrooms. If we find good edible species, we’ll collect them and you can take them home with you to cook. Along the way we’ll discuss proper methods for safely identifying and working with wild food/medicine. We’ll also discuss the ecology of our local environment, the impacts of climate change and human activities, and much more. this experience is fully customizable to suit the needs of your party Tours typically run around 3 hours.
you’ll need: BUG REPELLENT, RAINGEAR, WATER, SNACKS, LONG SOCKS & CLOSED-TOE SHOES. you can also bring paper bags, a basket/backpack or whatever you want to put collections in. I also recommend bringing a phone, camera, or notebook & pen to take notes with if you are interested in pursuing foraging on your own after this experience, having notes will be very helpful.
