Though there are thousands of edible species out there, we modern-day humans focus on less than 100 cultivated plant species for the majority of our diets! What flavors, delicacies, and nutrient-dense deliciousness do we miss? Come join Allison for a dive into the incredible wild edibles all around us. Learn the history of why we eat what we eat and some enticing reasons on why we should look beyond the supermarket for our food. We’ll learn about species like black walnut, garlic mustard, elderberry, hawthorn, juneberry, turkey tail mushrooms, and whatever we find on the walk! We’ll run the class rain or shine!
