Summer Foraging at Foxfire (Adult Class)

July 18, 2020 @ 10:00 am - 2:00 pm

$75.00
Join us for a wild foods foraging adventure at Foxfire in Southern Appalachia; one of the most botanically diverse regions of the world!

About this Event

Summer is a plentiful time for gathering wild foods, herbs, and fungi. The summer sun ripens wild berries and activates aromatic herbs adding layers of nutrient-dense flavors to foraged dishes. With the right mix of temperature and moisture, we are likely to find some fungi popping up on the Foxfire trails.

What you might expect to see: chanterelle mushrooms, wild blackberry, wineberries, Queen Anne’s lace, mountain mint, wild bergamot, elderflowers and berries, kudzu flowers

Participants should bring a bagged lunch, water bottle, and wear closed-toe shoes with socks. Long pants are preferable. Other suggested items include a backpack, journal and pen, bug spray suncreen, hat, and anything else you need to be comfortable outdoors.

COVID-19 UPDATE:

Please note that this class is limited to 6 participants. We will adhere to proper handwashing and safe social distancing guidelines. Disposable masks and hand sanitizer will be available.
