Explore the natural world and learn about trees during this Arbor Day & Earth Month special presentation! In this Wildcrafting with Trees, hour long, virtual zoom seminar, participants will go beyond the ecosystem roles of trees and dive into a unique thing that trees provide – wildcrafting services! This presentation is highly visual and includes dozens of my own photographs.

We shall go over:

• History & Ethnobotanical uses of Trees
• Edible Trees
• Medicinal Trees
• Crafting with Trees
• How to create a Tree-based cocktail

The end of the presentation will go in depth, giving instructions and methods for creating your own tree-based cocktail (with non-alcoholic modifications). All registrants will receive a materials checklist for this activity so you can follow along with me during this step-by-step tutorial if you wish! Plenty of time will be given at the end for questions.

Program will be recorded and sent out to all registrants, so sign up even if you can’t attend live! Admission is “Pay What You Can”, with a variety of budget-friendly options available (you MUST register even if you choose not to pay so that I know where to email the zoom link). A portion of the proceeds supports wildlife conservation efforts and ensures that I can continue creating educational content. Those who pay $15 or more will also get some of my illustrated weatherproof wildcrafting or tree themed stickers in the mail as a thank you!
