WILDERNESS SURVIVAL + LEADERSHIP: WILD EDIBLES & MEDICINALS
Great for survivalists and enironmentalists, along with food, health and wellness enthusiasts. In this focussed workshop, students learn about the inherent value of local resources for food and medicine. Participants will explore the different flavors, textures, and uses of wild edibles and medicinals for culinary, nutritional and medicinal functions. Learn about invasive and native species, how & which parts to use, how to prepare safely, ethical harvesting/foraging, and tips for identification. Learn some of the ways we can incorporate wild plants into recipe development and as emergency food and medicine, while geting the opportunity to prepare a meal or product using what is local.
