Forest Foraging Walk – Nettlefest 2023

Forest foraging w alk with Sustainable Food Systems Coordinator Cedana Bourne from the Galiano Conservancy Association.

Bring your cameras and notebooks, and learn about foraging in our local forests. We’ll walk through Galiano’s wild places and talk about nettles and other edible wild greens, how and when to pick them for a sustainable harvest, where they grow, and their roles in our local ecosystems. We’ll also learn about their nutritional and health-giving properties, and how best to preserve them.
