Description:
Join us for a springtime canyon hike amongst the flowering and fruiting trees where we will identify some of the native and naturalized edible and medicinal plants that grow in California in the season of renewal and bloom. We will learn about each plant's appearance, habitat, collecting technique, and possible edible or medicinal uses. This is an opportunity to commune in nature with one another, to familiarize ourselves with the land we live on, and build a relationship of knowledge and reciprocity with the wild world around us.
The hike will be 1 hour of walking/hiking and is open to all, beginner or seasoned hikers. Please prepare accordingly with water, a hat, comfortable walking/hiking shoes, and light clothing layers. This hike is especially for adults, but children will not be turned away.
This hike will be led by local naturalist, herbalist, and gardener Sasha Emoniee. Sasha is an Earth guide from California whose offerings are rooted in the belief that you can be in reciprocity with the land wherever you are. She is interested in creating spaces and experiences encouraging people to interact with the Earth through all senses.
