[MPWG] Go Wild With Herbs - Warren Wilson College 4/20/13

[Jeannie Dunn]

We are excited to host a special event to celebrate Earth Week and  
discuss herbs and non-timber forest products in the WNC region. There  
will be some great organizations present, herbalists and schools, we'd  
love to have your support and input at this event.

Warren Wilson College will be co-hosting this event from 2-9pm. We  
will have two herb and wild food walks with CoreyPine Shane and Alan  
Muskat scheduled that are sponsored by Red Moon Herbs. The Herb Crew  
with Warren Wilson will take those interested on a tour with focus on  
herbs growing on the farm. There will also be two indoor classes  
including a special class on the Wise Woman Way with Corinna Wood of  
SE Wise Women and founder of Red Moon Herbs. After classes and walks,  
we will have an introduction of all our special guests before a Q&A  
format panel discussion regarding the challenges we face in WNC  
regarding the herb and non-timber forest products industry. We will  
conclude the evening with networking, dinner, drinks and music. We've  
really strived to keep the cost low to encourage a large turnout for  
this event... we want farmers, wildharvesters, herb students and  
herbalists to be able to afford this by only charging $25 for classes,  
discussions, dinner and entertainment. Warren Wilson students may  
attend for free.

Childcare with activities and a healthy snack from 3:30-7:30 so you  
can relax will be available, children's dinner only $3.
Dinner will be served around 6:30-7:00 and will incorporate wild  
foods, catering by Marc Williams (botanyeveryday.com) and Michael  
Gentry (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Everyone-Cooks-with-Michael-Gentry/232955326746828
