March Plant Walk

During this two hour outdoor walk at Discovery Park in Seattle, we will get to know various coastal and forest plants of spring. We will encounter stinging nettle, cleavers, chickweed, horsetail, poison hemlock, Oregon grape and other important medicinal plants of the season and place. Natalie will share the timing, sustainable harvest, processing and use of the plants we meet on our way, as well as how to identify and where to look for them. Though this class is focused on medicinal plants, Natalie shares other tidbits, including material, culinary and edible uses.

We will carry on despite the weather, so dress accordingly. Part of being a forager is being out in all weather, which Natalie believes builds a strong spirit and connection to place.

Please purchase your tickets ahead of time on Brown Paper Tickets to guarantee your spot. You are also responsible for paying attention to the meeting spot and looking it up ahead of time. Discovery Park is big!

I host plant walks every month in various parks, even in the winter! Attending them in different seasons is a good way to expand your repertoire.
