Learn About Wild Foods
at Trailside Nature and Science Center

nature
Learn to recognize, harvest ecologically, and enjoy the many common, renewable organic herbs, greens, fruits, berries, roots, and mushrooms that flourish, unnoticed, in local backyards and parks during the summer. I'll be bringing bagfuls of seasonal specimens to the auditorium to discuss them with an audience of kids and adults.

Discover the science, ecology, history, folklore, mythology, anecdotes, and humor connected to these fascinating renewable resources. Learn what do do with these treasures once you've collected them. You'll never look at your backyard the same way again!

The free 60-minute presentation will be held at the Union County Trailside Nature and Science Center, 472 New Providence Rd., Mountainside, NJ, beginning at 1:30 PM. No reservations are necessary.
