Learn to confidently identify wild edible plants growing right here in Northeast Tennessee.
This hands-on spring workshop is designed for beginners who want practical, real-world foraging skills — not just plant trivia. You’ll walk the farm with us, learn how to identify 8–10 common wild edibles, understand key lookalikes, and practice ethical harvesting techniques.
