Discover the natural bounty in your own backyard and community in this introductory foraging class with DelVal University! Class will meet online over zoom. You will learn how to identify various local plant species, including trees, shrubs, flowers ,and fruits, prior to taking a dive into ecosystem connections and foraging etiquette. Then, with that background knowledge, you will explore your community in search of wild-edibles to learn how to prepare and use plants in the kitchen. This course will focus on creating drinks, desserts, and side dishes using in-season flowers and foliage.
