Have you ever wondered how to eat an acorn? Whether those berries along the trail are tasty or toxic? Why anyone would be glad to see a dandelion? Find out in this foraging class at Seven Bends State Park. We'll walk Bass Bight Trail (at a very gentle pace) and observe the edible and otherwise useful species growing there. The fields and forests are full of food to those in the know. Come learn what to look for! Meet the group by the entrance sign on the South Hollingsworth access.
Inclement weather date is February 3rd.
