Edible Plant Hike (Registration Required)

Come and learn which plants are safe to eat!

Today, most people get their fruit and vegetables from the grocery store. But for thousands of years, humans have foraged for their food from many of the same plant species that we drive past on the road every day. 

Come learn from a ranger about which plants are safe to eat, which plants to avoid, and the etiquette of foraging. NOTE: We will not be gathering any plants during this program.
