Botany in a Year

We go beyond identifying edible, medicinal, and poisonous plants in a year-round, hands-on course for all interests and skill levels.

​

Do you want to know how to use trees to navigate? Or what plants make the strongest rope? What plant can stop bleeding instantly? How about what plants to use to start a fire in the rain? Or how to make a water-tight container or weave a basket?

​

These skills and much more are included in our monthly program.

​

Other topics include (but are not limited to):

  • Knife Skills & Safety

  • Food

  • Hazards

  • Campfire Cooking

  • Salves & Tinctures

  • ​Crafts

  • Shelter

  • Ecology

  • History

  • And More
