Foraging Harvest Helpers: Pineapple Weed at Long Branch Farm & Trails

DATE: Friday 5/24/24   TIME: 6:30pm - 8:00pm

Registration Requirements: Preregistration required.  

Intended Audience: Foraging Harvest Helpers are designed for adults and are open to all levels—beginners welcome—but veteran foragers will also find value in the experience.  

Program Description: Learn with your hands as you help harvest for future education programs or contributions to our native edible species polyculture farming efforts. Every outing will be a unique blend of gathering and learning together with a community of people interested in foraging.  

We’ll follow the seasons during each foraging harvest hike. Every outing will be unique but will be a blend of: 

  • Gathering and learning together with a community of people interested in foraging 
  • Targeted foraging “shopping list” harvesting during peak season for each species 
  • Respectful, ethical, and sustainable harvesting as well as opportunities to give back to the land
  • Botany and ecology through naturalist eyes 
  • Identification tips and techniques 
  • Applied examples of preparation and preservation  
  • Tasting or food samples (part of each outing) 
  • Insider updates into the foraging and agroforestry happenings at Cincinnati Nature Center 

What to Expect: Dress for weather conditions—as long as it’s safe to be on the trail, we’ll be heading out in all weather conditions. We may cover 1-2 miles or more during each outing, with potential off-trail walking, but will adjust the hike based on the ability of program attendees.
