About the event

I am SO VERY excited for our next foraging gathering! It is called “Foraging for Friends” because I believe in the importance of developing relationships with the plant life around us, as well as connecting other humans with each other! COMMUNITY! 

All ages are welcome!

Your safety is 100% your responsibility and no one will be held liable if an accident occurs.

THIS IS NOT A GUIDED PLANT WALK. While there will be people there with a bounty of knowledge on local and native plants - the point of this gathering is for us to develop our own relationships with any plants that call to us. There is plenty of time for you to order Florida foraging books, field knife, find a basket, and any other foraging tools you may think of. If you are unable to get these items, we will share ours with whoever we can! So please do not let that stop you from coming - there is much to learn!

Here is how you can prepare for this gathering:

Bring foraging books!If you don't have any, thats fine! We will have some out there.

Other useful foraging tools include a field knife, a basket or a bag for collecting your plants. If anyone else can think of useful tools - please post them in the event section.

A protective hat to shade your face and eyes from the sun

A blanket, sheet, or mat if you find an area that you would like to sit and spend time in nature

WATER AND SNACKS

There will be ticks out here so I suggest wearing long pants that can tuck into your shoes and perhaps even long sleeves.

 Keeping your hair tied back and covered helps to keep ticks out of your hair. This is just a suggestion, many of us are out there barefoot and in shorts.

The goal of this gathering is for us to TAKE OUR TIME and spend it in nature. In my opinion, the best and most fun way to learn is hands-on experience. You are both the teacher and the student here. You will learn new things and be able to share them with those around you.

If you have any questions or would like to share anything - please post in the event section! This gathering will be Sunday October 29th, 2023 from 10am - 1pm at the Moses Creek Conservation Area East Trailhead off of 206. If you’re coming from A1A (east), or will be the first entrance on your right. If you’re coming from US1 (west) it will be the 2nd entrance on your left.
