Naturalist/author “Wildman” Steve Brill will lead one of his world famous foraging tours on his annual visit to the Nature Center, scheduled as late spring herbs and
greens should be popping up.

A 30-minute talk will be followed by a 60-minute walking tour along the trails of Werner’s Woods in search of wild foods. Brill is best known for having been arrested in
New York’s Central Park for picking a dandelion. He is the author of Identifying and Harvesting Edible and Medicinal Plants in Wild (and Not-So-Wild) Places and The Wild Vegetarian Cookbook. Copies of his books will be available for purchase.

Pre-registration recommended as space is limited.
