Urban Foraging with Keep Ennis Beautiful
Join us Sunday, March 24th at 1pm for a FREE nature hike you’ll likely never forget!
Bob Richie will share his passion for urban foraging starting with a quick botany lesson on how to positively identify the plants we are looking for followed by a search for some of the edible fresh and tasty offerings that grow naturally in our area. He’ll discuss useful and medicinal plants that can be found as well.
