Foraging Classes in Colorado’s Mountains

May 13, 2025 By Erica M. Davis Leave a Comment

Interested in edible wild plants? You’ve come to the right place. I have a variety of plant walks, hands-on foraging, and forest hikes available for the 2025 season, with more to come. Check out the flyer for a list of events coming up next in Colorado’s high country. These take place near or in Fairplay, Alma, Breckenridge, Frisco, Dillon, Silverthorne, and Vail.

Please see the Colorado classes page for the full list of foraging classes, and to reserve your spot. Classes fill up fast, but I will continue to add more. If you’d like a notification when new classes are added, including mushroom classes, please join the email list. Hope to see you!
