walk the wilds is a community exploration of local, public land where we’ll take the time to identify edible & medicinal plants. These walks are kid friendly, however we may walk a mile or so. These group walks will be kept small to reduce impact on local parks, their parking lots, and make sure that we aren’t impeding others’ enjoyment of nature. Carpooling is always encouraged!
On our walk we’ll learn to identify Edible & medicinal local plants (many of them dubbed weeds!) - both native & invasive - and learn how to easily incorporate them into your life, any folklore or ancestral practices associated with them and ethics of harvesting. These walks last for about an hour and we can anticipate learning about 2-5 plants, trees or shrubs on each walk depending on the season.
Location: for May 19th we are meeting and completing the Blakey harbor park trail loop. we’ll start in the meadow on the country club road side where the dirt/wood chip piles are, and will work our way counter clockwise, through the woods, across the harbor area and back around. please rsvp.
