| Japanese knotweed shoots |
As
the warmer temperatures and longer days of spring unfold, many tender,
young edible shoots, plants, flowers, and even a few fungi awaken a
forager’s senses and delight. Learn how to identify, sustainably
harvest, and prepare the wild foods of spring, from invasive bamboo
shoots to the lemony tang of fresh wood sorrel, including some of the
early edible fungi of the season. In this 2+hour ramble we will explore
the verges, forests, and fields to find edibles. Educational handouts
provided. This site is mainly for teaching, not actual harvesting in
large quantities, so we suggest bringing a notebook and pen for taking
notes, camera for taking photos, and your curiosity!
