Wild Edible Plants Walk

Event date and time
June 17, 2017 - 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM

Nature is fruitful, but fruits aren't the only edible parts of wild plants. Join Nature Up North as we reveal common and uncommonly found edible plants on a tour of the Remington Recreational Trail in Canton. Collecting your own wild edible plants can add a nutritious element to salads, jams, teas, trail snacks and more. Having a better understanding of what is edible and what isn't will enhance your connection to the local environment as well as your survival skills. Come spend a few hours learning how to find, identify and prepare local edible plants both responsibly and safely. - - Please RSVP to natureupnorth@gmail.com if you plan on attending. The Remington Trail, also known as the Partridge Loop, is a popular paved 3.2 mile loop that winds its way around the Partridge Run Golf Course. The trail is great for bikers, walkers, roller bladers, and runners. There are two main entry points for the loop, one off Riverside Drive and the other off Sullivan Drive next to the golf course parking lot that doubles as trailhead parking. There is a playground found 0.1 mile from the Sullivan Drive entrance.
