Gardening & Fall Foraging Talk – Thurs, Oct 8

Fall Foraging Favorites

Thursday, October 8, 2015, 6:45p – 8:p

Deale Community Library

Join local Naturalist Lindsay Hollister to celebrate some of our area’s best fall foraged foods. We will learn about several common plants and discuss recipes while tasting a variety of snacks made from each.

Foraged foods have become popular in recent years on restaurant menus and at Farmer’s Markets. They are also called “wild-crafted foods” and sometimes, “weeds!”

Naturalist Lindsay Hollister, one of the founding members of the SOCOGROW group, is the October speaker and will bring folks up-to-date on which wild plant species are good to eat. She says she’s been scouting around locally and has made some fun discoveries. She’ll bring edible plant samples, some foraged food recipes and maybe even some tasty snacks.
