Edible Plant Identification with Northwest Natura

Join Naturalist, Jazmen Yoder on a walk this spring to learn how to identify edible plants of the Pacific Northwest’s west side of the Cascades. There is no elevation gain on this walk. Keep in mind we’ll be stopping frequently to botanize and learn about edible plant species. The trail can be narrow and muddy sometimes. Ski to Sea is happening the same weekend. Escape the crowds, the traffic, and come have a joyful day out in nature! 

Things to bring with you to class: Dress for the weather, Hiking shoes, Snacks and water, Notebook and pen (optional), Camera (optional), Your favorite field guide (optional), Foraging basket or bag (optional) 

*Registered individuals will receive an email a few days prior to the event with driving directions, weather forecast, and a reminder of what to bring with you. Please register via the event website.

        We acknowledge that Whatcom County is located on the unceded territory of the Coast Salish Peoples. They cared for the lands that included what we’d call the Puget Sound region, Vancouver Island and British Columbia since time immemorial. This gives us the great obligation and opportunity to learn how to care for our surrounding areas and all the natural and human resources we require to live. We express our deepest respect and gratitude for our indigenous neighbors, the Lummi Nation and Nooksack Tribe, for their enduring care and protection of our shared lands and waterways.
