Reading about nature is fine, but if a person walks in the woods and listens carefully, he can learn more than what is in books.

Foraging Classes

Come join Michelle for a two hour instructional class to learn about the variety of local plants that are all around you, even on your property.

  • A class on local plant identification & how to utilize them for you & your family.

    This is a class on foraging in our local area and how to use the plants medicinally, cosmetically, and for food. Come learn about the plants that grow all over our area and likely right in your yard. You will also learn the tools to identify a handful of useful plants as well as how to use them for food and medicine for you and your family.

    You will come away from this class with the knowledge to get you started on your foraging journey, with recipes and tips on how to use our local plants for your family, and hopefully with a peaked curiosity to learn more and more about the world around you.

    At the end of the class we will do a walk about and practice plant identification hands on.

    I will have loose leaf teas, medicinal oils & tinctures, skincare serums & creams, and healing salves available for purchase as well. All products are made from locally foraged plants and made by me personally. These are tried & true and have been used on myself, my family, & friends with fantastic success

  • Come on adventure with me as we experience the outdoors like you probably never have before. We will be eating our way through the woods!

    This class will start with a brief lesson on the plants you will see throughout the park and how you & your kids can use them on an everyday basis. A few things you’ll learn along the way…

    Fall and scrape your knee? There’s a plant for that.

    Need a bandaid? There’s a plant for that.

    Feeling queezy? There’s a plant for the that.

    Got a bee sting? There’s a plant for that.

    Feeling tired? There’s a plant for that

    Got a headache? There’s a plant for that

    Got a stuffy nose? There’s a plant for that too!

  • The Private Property Walk consists of a private consultation with Michelle. She will walk your entire property with you and identify each plant and their uses. She’ll then work with you to come up with a detailed plan to harvest the plants that would best serve you family’s needs. Every detail will be covered, when & how to harvest, how to store, and how to use them medicinally & for food. By the end of your walk you will know the ins and outs of the plants on your property and how to use each one of them.
