SUMMARY:FORAGING WALK -- WILD FOOD OUTING
DESCRIPTION:  \nMay 9\, 10 a.m \n \n  \nSaturday\, May 9\, 10 a.m. \nWILD FOOD FORAGING AND ETHNO-BOTANICAL WALK \nJoin us for our outing where we explore the edible\, medicinal\, and other useful qualities of many of the plants found in the environment with many introduced plants.  Both natives and non-natives will be seen.  This will be leisurely and you will get a chance to taste some of the plants. \nWe will introduce a few basics of systematic plant identification\, and ways you can take your own records.  We’ll also bring up another important point:  Many of the wild plants that we see — and especially the non-natives — can be easily cultivated in your own yard for ease of harvesting. Also\, we’ll tell you about some of the local native plant nurseries where you can obtain native plants — such as toyon\, ceonothus\, oak trees\, mulefat\, elder\, etc  — and grow them in your own yards\, which is an ideal situation. \nWear comfortable footwear and bring water.   Bring a bowl for eating. \nThis class can be credited towards the Ethno-botany certificate. \nDirections sent upon registration. \n$65 (Seniors and students $45). \n  \n \n

SUMMARY:FORAGING BY THE SEASON:  WINTER
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, December 19\, 10 a.m. \nFORAGING BY THE SEASON:  WINTER \n  \n \n‘ \n  \nWINTER FORAGING in the West:  What are the seasonal greens\, nuts\, seeds\, berries\, roots\, etc. that are available now? \nThis series of Seasonal Foraging occurs once per season\, where you can learn to see nature through the seasons\, from a forager’s perspective.  The essence of this class is to develop seasonal knowledge and observational skills: How to look\, where to look\, what to look for.  Plus\, we will also focus on responsible and sustainable gathering methods\, including collection of seeds and cuttings so you can grow plants in your own backyard.  See web site for details. \nThe essence of this class is to develop seasonal knowledge and observational skills: How to look\, where to look\, what to look for.  Plus\, we will also focus on responsible and sustainable gathering methods\, including collection of seeds and cuttings so you can grow plants in your own backyard. \n \nYou’ll learn how to identify and collect foods\, medicines\, soaps\, fire-materials\, and other useful parts of plants.  You’ll learn to think like foragers of the past\, who had to have an intimate knowledge of the seasons\, and foresight for the future.  (For example\, sometimes you do NO foraging in an area if the plant or seed is not abundant.) \nJoin us each quarter for an insightful walk into a wild area\, with a focus on interpreting what’s available that season.  Each session will include demonstrations\, hands-on practice\, and sampling of the seasonal foods\, such as salad\, soup\, biscuit\, or tea.  Each session includes a list of what is normally available in that season. \n  \nWINTER   \nThis is the time when we begin to  get our rains\, and we can begin to see the hillsides and valleys greening-up.  Learn to identify young seedlings and sprouts\, and which are already edible.  Learn to identify those locations where you can come back to later. Some fruits that occur in early spring\, and we’ll discover those.  This would also be the time to collect cuttings for sprouting\, so you can grow these plants at your own home.   Mushrooms are beginning now. \nLOCATION:  We will explore a foothill canyon in the Angeles National Forest. Details sent upon registration. \n  \n
