| This program is the first in our year-long Wild Edible Plants series, with each month highlighting a different plant part or type of plant. The series emphasizes conservation, respectful harvesting, and building a meaningful connection to the land. Participants will build confidence in understanding when, where, and how wild plants can be used as a sustainable food source. In this program, we’ll focus on tree bark. We will learn how people have traditionally used bark as food and how we can do the same today! We’ll begin indoors with a presentation on how to identify, gather, and use bark. Then we’ll head outside to carefully gather shagbark hickory bark and work together to make shagbark hickory syrup to sample. This program is recommended for ages 7+. Please register EACH person who will be present. We will be both inside and outside, so please dress accordingly. |
