A plant may be edible, but is it palatable? What would you eat in a survival situation? Will it kill you? Or is it absolutely yummy and irresistible?!⁣ ⁣ In this class, we will be exploring different ecosystems from the mountains all the way to the lakeshore of Pend Oreille to see what’s on the menu.⁣ We will not only talk about plants, but I will guide you through, how to identify the plants without a phone app. This is not just a plant walk, but an invaluable transfer of wisdom from basic botany to medicinal remedies to really cool tools that can be made from plants. ⁣ 𝐌𝐞𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐋𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧:⁣ Will be revealed when closer to the date, but it will be somewhere in Bonner County, Idaho.
