*Weeds, Leaves, Seeds and Shoots: Extend your Budget & Steward the Land ©*

A plant identification series will take place once a month over the summer
with a focus on nature and nutrition education. Beginning Wednesday, April
20th and then the first Wednesday there after, May thru October, Marguerite
Uhlmann-Bower R.N., Herbalist will lead the walk at various Delaware County
locations, hosted by 6 county businesses: Quarter Moon Café’ - Delhi,
Turquoise Barn - Bloomville, Tay Tea – Andes, Pepacton Health Foods Store –
Downsville and Masonville General Store - Masonville, Harmony Hill Retreat
Center - East Meredith. The focus of these classes are twofold: ‘Support the
Land that Feeds Us’, and stretch our nutritional food potential. You will
learn about responsible land and water stewarding as well as how to safely
identify, process and preserve these nutrient dense garden weeds into a
table food.

The first of the series will begin on April 20th, from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.
 We’ll meet at Quarter Moon Café’s woodlands in East Meredith to forage
various spring foods. We’ll then car pool back to the Café in Delhi to learn
how to clean and store the wild foods, as well as taste a couple of Jonah’s
preparations, pairing the wild edibles with some of his new homemade
charcuterie products.

By participating in this grass roots effort, you will be supporting the
education of people and community on the effects that gas drilling has on
our environment, our health and our future. Suggested donation per class:
$15 person. *
