Service Description

Take a walk with Erica and learn about the abundance of wild plants and medicinals in the Agassiz Forest Area. This is a great class for anyone who has a good foundation of ID and wants to expand their knowledge by learning about picking protocols, offerings, how to prepare local wild foods, medicinal plants, and edible flowers for home use as we identify them. We will explore the medicine wheel and identify plants in the wheel. Each class lasts about 2-2.5 hours and is suitable for more veteran foragers. You will be offered bannock & a cool or hot foraged drink. I will also give you the option to take tobacco for laying down. Put on your boots, long pants and bug protective clothing (maybe slap on some sunscreen too) Pick up a mesh bag and come out to explore a couple of different spaces in the area (to be announced closer to the class date) This class is going to be all about our connection with the earth and how to use what is provided to us. Make sure to bring any gear you may need. I always carry knives, bug spray, sunscreen. A notebook is highly recommended for this class. Classes require a minimum of 5 people for 2025 due to time constraints.
