This 2-hour walk takes place in a town setting, where we will learn edible plants that grow in disturbed areas (weeds!) as well as native plants common to aspen groves and meadows. There will be numerous opportunities for field tasting. I will have signs with the plant names if you would like to use your camera to take notes.
