Edible Wild Plant and Fungi Seminar with The 3 Foragers
Autumn Foraging Classroom Seminar
Autumn is a time of bounty and harvest for woodland creatures and foragers alike: nuts are falling to the forest floor, fruits are ripening and scenting the crisp fall air, roots and tubers are thickening up in anticipation of sustaining the plants through the tough winter, and edible fungi can be found in astounding amounts.
In this seminar, you’ll:
- Learn to identify seasonal plants, nuts, roots, fruits, and fungi safely and confidently
- Explore sustainable harvesting practices that protect natural ecosystems
- Get practical tips for preparing and cooking wild foods
- Learn about favorite fall finds, including acorns, wintergreen, honey mushrooms, and maitake (“dancing mushroom”)
Join The 3 Foragers as they teach the edible plants and fungi of autumn with their original photos and recipe ideas in an educational slideshow.
The 3 Foragers are a family from southeastern Connecticut who have been identifying, photographing, and cooking with the edible plants and fungi of New England for more than 17 years. Their blog, Facebook page, and book all focus on family-friendly, environmentally sustainable harvest of both our native and invasive species of plants, and ways to incorporate these foods into your diet with original recipes.
