Seattle area to host foraging walk

As Seattle wakes up from another winter, a class will teach how foraging for wild food can make the most of spring’s bounty.

Kelsey Creek Park is home to a diverse range of plants, many of which are edible. The Adiantum School of Plant Medicine will be leading a walk that will explore these species, and the function can offer an easy introduction to ethical foraging.

The attendees at the session will be visiting an area that has been used for farming, so the soil will be fertile. They can expect to find species such as chickweed and dead nettle. Native Edibles including horsetails, salmonberry flowers, and Oregon grape will be observed. It will be a hands-on activity, and everyone can touch, smell, and taste the edible plants that are found.

Those who sign up for the walk are asked to bring a pocket knife, as well as a small bag and notebook if they wish. They should dress for the weather and wear suitable footwear. Printed plant checklists, promotional Pens, and other items for a nature-based activity like this one will be available at professional Print shops.

This opportunity to explore what nature has on offer when it comes to edible plants in the Pacific Northwest will begin at 2:30 pm on April 16th. The walk will take place at 410 130th Place Southeast in Bellevue.
