More Information

In the fall of 2024, a group of dedicated wild food foragers are bringing a hands-on educational experience to the Northeastern Ohio and Northwestern Pennsylvania region. Even if you live in the city, the knowledge and techniques easily translate to urban foraging!

Come celebrate wild foods, share knowledge, and develop or hone your skills. Spend the day with us learning to identify and forage wild foods!

People of all ages, backgrounds, and experience levels are welcome! Experience the different wild foods found around lakes, wetlands, prairies, and forests of this beautiful and diverse park.

Some offerings include:

  • Finding and identifying mushrooms
    and wild edible plants
  • Cooking demonstrations
  • Cultivating wild edibles at home
  • Food systems and sustainability
  • Intro to fishing and hunting
  • Improving your foraging practice by keeping a journal
  • Intro to wilderness herbal first aid
