Interested in growing edible native plants in your backyard? Please join expert forager and author Russ Cohen to learn about at least two dozen species of native edible wild plants suitable for adding to your own landscape, or to forage in other locales.

Discover key identification features of each species, learn which parts of the plants are edible, the seasons of availability, preparation methods, and guidelines for safe and environmentally responsible foraging.

Russ will discuss his experiences growing some of these plants from seed and the partnerships he has made with conservation groups to add edible native plants to their landscapes.

Admission for this talk is $5 payable at the door.
