Foraging the Edible Wilderness
Saturday, January 25, 11 am – 12:30 pm
Foraging is a culinary adventure that connects us with nature, offering unique, edible treasures. Join KNC staff to learn some foraging basics all while searching for some tasty treats along KNC’s trails. Foraging on local land introduces us to a world of wild flavors. Approach it responsibly, respecting nature’s balance. Grab your basket, explore the wilderness, and let these wild ingredients inspire your culinary creations! Dress for the weather as this program will be entirely outdoors. Participants, please meet in Delano Farm parking lot to begin your program
Winter Tree ID
Thursday, February 20, 4:30-6 pm
Leaves are one of the first characteristics used to identify trees, but by learning to use other parts of the tree like buds, leaf scars, bark, and branching patterns, participants can develop the skills to identify trees even in winter when leaves are gone. Join us for winter tree identification at Delano farm where we will begin inside the farmhouse for a short presentation and then move outside to the trails for some identification practice. Participants, please meet in Delano Farm parking lot to begin your program
