“Wild Eats” PSA
Free Program at Shawnee Prairie
Greenville – August 2, 2018, 6:30pm: Shawnee Prairie Preserve will host
a free program to the public on the wonderful world of wild edible
plants. Join us, August 2nd at 6:30pm, as we discover the diversity of
our forests and fields, looking closer to find hidden treats. We will
discuss what is safe to eat, what to avoid, and how to tell the
difference. Foraging for wild edibles is fun, yet unpredictable, always
changing with the weather and seasons. Conditions permitting our
discussion will be followed by discovery walk and a taste of something
wild. Who knows, perhaps you will discover a feast waiting in your own
backyard! Please call the Nature Center at 937-548-0165 to
register for this FREE program.
