History
We are a passionate group of wild food foragers who hunt, fish, and search for wild foods. In 2023, we came together to collaborate on a day-long event to celebrate and educate wild foods. We will share our knowledge and curate presentations, experiences, and vendors to provide a broad base of knowledge that both green and grizzled foragers will enjoy. Many of us are experienced at bringing people together to learn, and we hope to create an educational and fun experience that becomes an annual celebration of regional wild foods.
Mission
Our mission is to inspire a love of wild food and provide the education and skills to enjoy wild food safely and sustainably.
Location
Our event will be at Bending Oak Permaculture Farm. Details pending!
Lodging
More info coming soon!
Accessibility
From a big picture perspective, increasing access to wild food means providing education about procuring wild foods, improving access to resources for people of different backgrounds, and creating and supporting marketplaces to serve diverse populations.
On the ground, it means being prepared for the outdoors, which will include uneven terrain. The guided hikes will occur on hiking trails, in fields, and in other areas that may be muddy and/or have small hills to navigate.
