Join us for our educational Forest Edibles Tour: A walking tour of Wild Edible & Medicinal Plants, Lichen and Fungi of the Pacific Northwest! Your knowledgeable guide, Herpetologist and Professional Forager, Jerry Novak, will take you on a 2.5 hour walk through meadow, wetland, forest, and riparian habitats in search of the season’s bountiful wild edible and medicinal plants, mushrooms and lichen found on the Olympic Peninsula. Your guide will teach you identification, uses, benefits, and preparation tips on the wonderful gifts nature provides that we often walk past every day. Bring a harvesting basket and clippers if you wish to harvest something to bring home! A delicious tea or other wild edible dish will be prepared for you with what we find along the way!
Conducted April through September. Meet at our Store & Office between 10:00 and 10:25 am to sign in. Tour group size will be between 6 and 14 participants. Private tours for your group may also be arranged for groups of 6 or more.
Your guide gladly accepts cash tips.
