Evening Briefing: The Flavor of the Wild

We’ve all heard “Take only photographs, leave only footprints”. A noble sentiment, but it limits our interaction with wild plants to a visual one only, if that. Using wild plants as food and medicine helps us experience plants with our other senses and makes more permeable the boundary between us and the rest of the natural world.

Learn about the cultural uses of native plants with Jared Rosenbaum, proprietor of Wild Ridge Plants, LLC. Jared will cover native spices, greens, fruits, and herbal medicines, including wild leek, Solomon’s seal, wood nettle, elderberry and others.
