Wild Edible & Medicinal Plants Class *

This isn’t just a walk in the woods — it’s a hands-on, memory-locking experience.
Learn how to identify, harvest, and apply wild edible and medicinal plants with confidence, not just curiosity.

Whether you're new to foraging or serious about building long-term skill, this class gives you practical, real-world knowledge you’ll actually remember and use.

We’ll explore a stunning 45-acre parcel rich with plant life and learning opportunities.
You’ll walk away with a deeper connection to the land — and the ability to feed and heal yourself from it.

Identify and Forage: Learn how to spot, safely harvest, and enjoy a variety of wild edibles.

  1. Understand Healing Properties: Discover which plants have medicinal uses and how to prepare them for everyday health.

  2. Engage with Nature: Experience the beauty of our 45‑acre property as you connect with fellow participants in an environment designed for learning and retention.

  3. Practical Application: Gain tips and techniques that you can apply long after the class ends to continue learning and building your relationship with nature.

Expect patient instruction. We’re here for you, not the other way around.

Expect to take notes and photos throughout the day.

Expect to take breaks every 45 minutes. We want your mind ready for more after each break.

EXPECTATIONS & ITEMS NEEDED FOR CLASS

What Not to Expect:

Don’t expect PowerPoint presentations.

Don’t expect to just watch the instruction, expect to smell, touch and taste what the land has to offer.

Don’t expect 20 minute tangents on the history of plants and their native origins. The PAP prides itself on delivering information in short & sweet manner, not overwhelming you with information that isn’t needed. We have lots to cover and have learned over the years, “more is definitely less” and “less is more.”
