Nature Immersion: Late Summer Herbs & Wild Foods Walk

Experience the abundance of late summer!

The forest canopy has wholly filled out by late summer, creating a deep blanket of shade where 

wild ginger, partridgeberry, black and blue cohosh, and wild cucumber thrive.

In sunny open fields, we’ll look for bright orange butterfly weed, towering Joe-Pye-Weed, and stands of sumac.

We may even find the first blooms of late summer flowers like turtlehead and goldenrod beginning their display, along with drooping clusters of ripe elderberries.
