Forage Walk: Edible Plants and Fungi Walk

Join us at the Pattaconk Reservoir on Saturday, September. 30th at 10:00 am for a forage walk!

Join The 3 Foragers as they teach the edible plants and fungi of autumn on a foraging walk. Autumn is a time of bounty and harvest for woodland creatures and foragers alike: nuts are falling to the forest floor, fruits are ripening and scenting the crisp fall air, roots and tubers are thickening up in anticipation of sustaining the plants through the tough winter, and edible fungi can be found in astounding amounts. Learn how to identify, sustainably harvest, and prepare the wild foods of autumn, from acorns through minty wintergreen leaves, including golden honey mushrooms and maitake, the “dancing mushroom.”  

The 3 Foragers are a family from southeastern Connecticut who have been identifying, photographing, and cooking with the edible plants and fungi of New England for more than 17 years. Their blog, Facebook page, and book all focus on family-friendly, environmentally sustainable harvest of both our native and invasive species of plants, and ways to incorporate these foods into your diet with original recipes.

NO DOGS, PLEASE – AS PER THE REQUEST OF THE INSTRUCTORS.
