For the forager and wildcrafter, June is a bountiful junction. This time of transition brings both the fresh young greens of spring and the juicy fruits of summer. Depending on the year's climate—dry or wet, hot or mild—we can expect to find anything from nettles, wild mustards, and other edible and medicinal leaves to wineberries, black raspberries, and cherries from the woodland edges. In any case, it's almost certain we'll harvest mulberries a-plenty during this generous time of year!

Whether you are interested in wild foods, local plants and ecology, or alternative uses for plants through wildcrafting and medicine-making, you're invited to join our Late Spring Forging Walk, taking place Sunday, June 8th 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.
