Fall Wild Foods with Nicholas Gale

Come see and sample autumn’s abundant wild foods! Fruit such as nannyberry, apple, and highbush cranberry are ripe and ready. Hickory nuts, walnuts, and acorns are rich in carbohydrates and fats and abundantly available. Parsnip, hopniss, and wild leek tubers await the ambitious gatherer and promise flavorful hearty winter soups and stews. Some greens rebound sweeter than ever after fall frosts. These foods and others await our observation, harvesting, and sampling. This great-for-all-ages class will include upland and lowland hikes. Please wear appropriate clothing/shoes and bring a few gathering containers and a clean palate.
