FALL FORAGING

FALL FORAGING

Sunday, September 28th

1-4PM

Pinicon Alders Cabin

3133 470th Street, McIntire

Fall is for Fungi & Foraging!

Join Naturalist Chelsea Ewen Rowcliffe for a fun fall foraging foray! We’ll discuss common fall fungi and Wild Edible plants, develop identification skills, and go for a foraging walk. We’ll return to the cabin area to prepare, and – best of all – sample some tasty wild treats!

This class is designed for beginners and is a family-friendly event. We will meet at the Pinicon Alders Wildlife Area Cabin just outside of McIntire. There is construction on the bridge IN McIntire, so make plans to go around on gravel, come in from the west, or around from the east onto 470th. Once you get to the entrance of Pinicon Alders Wildlife Area and Wapsi-Great Western Line Trail Parking area, follow the gravel driving path north from 470th Street, around the corner to the west (left), then continue straight and join the paved bike trail that leads north to the cabin area.

Please bring a water bottle and dress to be outside. All other materials will be provided. This class requires pre-registration. Registration is $10/adult for members of the Environmental Education Foundation, or $15/adult for non-members.

To sign up, contact Chelsea at (641) 732-5204 or (641) 330-0765 or email at crowcliffe@mitchellcoia.us
