Local Edible and Medicinal Plant ID Class (Bridle Trails)
In this class, we'll walk the trails of Bridle Trails State Park (Bellevue/ Kirkland) and learn about all the useful plants we find there. We'll observe the leaf shape of oregon grape, see ripe salmon berries, smell fresh green cedar boughs, munch on the spring tips of douglas fir and so much more. Natalie (that's me!) will also talk about how one might go about harvesting and using the plants we encounter.
This class is for plant lovers, foodies, aspiring naturalists, aspiring herbalists, wilderness survival enthusiasts, outdoorspeople, hikers and anyone who wants to get to know our local useful plants on a deeper level. The class will focus on medicinal uses, with added info on edible and materially useful plants.
