Have you wanted to learn about wild edibles and medicinal plants that can be found right in your very own woods? Well now you can with the help of a West Virginia Master Naturalist, Becky Linger.
Becky will take you through Meeks Mountain trails and teach you all about the medicinal plants and edibles growing in Hurricane's backyard.
Take a walk on the "wild" side and enjoy learning how to forage safely and sustainably. West Virginia is all about being wild and wonderful, and there are a lot of wild foods to eat. We have weeds, leafy greens, berries, and much more. Sign up and learn a little something!!
We will meet at the Big Red Barn at Hurricane City Park at 6:00 for introductions and begin the nature walk around 6:15. From there, we will take one of the trails and learn about edibles in nature. Please be sure to wear comfortable shoes and be prepared to walk at least 2 miles. Please do not bring your pets on this hike.
