Plant identification walks are back for 2025!

✨Are you curious about foraging or looking to deepen your plant identification knowledge?

✨Learn about gathering ethics, land ecology and native plant species?

✨Explore ethnobotany through the history of plants and their uses?

Join me in a guided plant walk where we’ll discuss all this and more in a local park with mature old growth forest!

We’ll spend 2+ hours wandering through the forest to find, identify, and discuss dozens of local plant species and their medicinal & functional uses!

With registration you’ll receive herbal reference cards, notepad & pen, water and snacks! 

Location:

Silver Falls State Park

Sublimity, Oregon

2025 Dates:

June 22: 10 am - 12:30 pm

July 26: 10 am - 12:30 pm

August 24: 9 am - 11:30 am

September 27: 9 am - 11:30 am

Cost: $35

Registration is required to ensure our group is small enough to allow discussion and discover new plants together.

We’ll identify plenty of plants, but may only forage berries, fruits and similar edibles from this site. You’re welcome to bring a basket/bag for what we gather. Please bring water, sunscreen, weather-appropriate clothing/shoes, and snacks if you like. There is a $5 day-use fee unless you have an annual park pass. Restrooms are located at the parking lot and halfway through the trail walk. 

An email with meetup details will be sent at least 3 days before the event.
