MAY 2025:
Hosted by Wild Food Girl:
Wild Foods in Arvada– Sat, May 3, 2024 (9:00-11:30 am) – What wild foods grow in the back yard in spring? Come learn some local spring edibles in Arvada, Colorado. We won’t be walking far, but there are plenty of plants to learn in this backyard setting. In this hands-on class, we will take a plant walk, practice foraging a few of them, discuss safety and sustainability practices, and then prepare something wild to taste. I will have signs with the plant names if you would like to use your camera to take notes. Hosted by WFG. ($60) – Registration open!
Wild Food Walk & Tasting in Loveland – Fri, May 16, 2025 (2:00-4:00 pm) – In this 2-hour walk on a beautiful ranch under towering stone buttresses we will learn edible plants that grow in disturbed settings (weeds!) as well as native plants common to high prairies. There will be opportunities for field tasting, and a discussion of safety and sustainability practices. I will have signs with the plant names if you would like to use your camera to take notes.

Foraging Loveland – ALL DAY – Sat, May 17, 2025 (9:00 AM-3:00 pm) – This 6-hour, hands-on class will take place on a beautiful ranch under towering stone buttresses outside Loveland, Colorado. The day starts with a morning plant walk, safety and sustainability discussion, and hands-on foraging and food preparation to create one or more wild dishes to enjoy with our lunches. In the afternoon we’ll see more plants, followed by more food prep/tasting of plants we haven’t yet explored, a tour of the wild food literature, and/or a longer plant hike, depending on time and what we decide as a group. I’ll be ready for all possibilities! At this property we’ll learn edible plants that grown in disturbed settings (weeds!) as well as native plants common to high prairies, like prairie onions and biscuitroots. There is always the possibility of a few morels and oyster mushrooms, as we have found them here before, but no promises. It will be a great day no matter what. I hope to forage with you!
