This class is delivered in two parts to give participants time to learn, prepare, and feel confident before the outdoor session.

Part 1: Virtual Preparation Session (Zoom)

Participants will receive a slideshow presentation prepared by the instructor prior to the Zoom meeting.
The Zoom session will focus on:
- Plant identification fundamentals
- Safety considerations
- Foraging principles and ethics
This virtual session allows everyone to start the outdoor portion with a shared foundation.
This ensures the in-person time is focused on hands-on learning rather than basic instruction.

Part 2: In-Person Two- Day Outdoor Experience

The in-person portion will focus on hands-on plant identification and foraging in a natural setting.
Participants will apply what they learned during the Zoom session in a guided, outdoor environment.

Zoom details and access instructions will be emailed to registered participants.

To help you prepare for the Edible Wild Plants & Forage class, we’ve created a printable checklist with recommended items and preparation tips.
