Participants will:

Learn how to accurately recognize 10 (or more) of the most common plants to forage around the Keweenaw and Upper Peninsula and their uses
Use the art of sketching to get to know the plants they forage
All participants will receive Foraging Adventures – Journal and Guide, a booklet created by your guide, Lisa Reitz. The book includes information and details from the class to use on your own future foraging adventures. This book is also for your sketches – basic sketching materials and instructions will be provided for the event. Absolutely no artistic experience or abilities are needed to participate in this workshop experience.

The tour will end with a group discussion and guests can take home a dried herbal tea gift. Questions about this workshop can be directed to B Lauer, b@keweenawlandtrust.org.
