Wild Edibles Walk & Workshop - Saturday, May 9th, 10am-1pm

Join founding naturalist Laura Chávez Silverman along the river to forage for early shoots of nettle, cattail and knotweed. We’ll cover best practices for harvesting as we gather ingredients for edible and medicinal preparations. Then we’ll head back to the outpost to spend some time preserving our bounty with simple, time-honored methods. Possible preparations include nettle vinegar, cattail pickles and knotweed-strawberry compote. Recipes will be provided so you can take your skills home. Wild snacks will be offered. Space is limited; registration is required.

Location: The Outside Institute’s outpost in Barryville, NY. All details will be emailed directly to participants.

Of note: This is a rain or shine event, unless advance notice is given. Terrain is easy; all ages and abilities are welcome.
