Epic Ramp Foraging & Wild Foods Tasting.

Join founding naturalist Laura Chávez Silverman for a fun day of learning, spending time outdoors in community and sampling delicious wild flavors. The event is held on an extensive and lovingly tended private ramp patch along a beautiful stretch of the Upper Lenape (aka Delaware) River. We’ll walk the bountiful land—where nettles, fiddleheads and morels also thrive—and learn from the owner/farmer about proper techniques for harvesting ramps to ensure long-term sustainability. Each participant will then dig up to two pounds of ramps to take home in a signature canvas tote bag from The Outside Institute.

A wildcrafted menu of foraged food and drink will be served, featuring locally harvested ingredients such as ramp, nettle, toothwort, magnolia, black walnut, chaga, cattail, knotweed, wild mushroom and spicebush. Space is limited; advance registration is required.

Location: Equinunk, PA. Full details will be emailed to participants.

Of note: Participants should anticipate muddy conditions and dress accordingly. This is a rain or shine event.
