Foraging Walk
Naturalist and wild edibles enthusiast Arianna Alexsandra Collins from the Hoosic River Watershed Association and Offerings for Community Building leads a foraging walk. Collins guides visitors across the Clark’s 140-acre campus in a one-hour talk, identifying wild edibles and medicinal plants found on the grounds. She discusses flora and fungi characteristics for proper identification as well as meal and medicinal preparation. Trailside nibbling during the walkabout is encouraged.
Collins is an environmental education professional with twenty years of experience in teaching, curriculum design, program development, project administration, daily operations, public relations, and community engagement.
Free. Advance registration required; capacity is limited. The program is offered on the fourth Tuesday of the month from April through September. Meet on the Fernández Terrace by the Clark's Reflecting Pool.
