Spring Wild Botanicals; Budding Blooms

Wild Botanicals is a series of classes created on the basis of the harvest season in Snoqualmie Valley. Classes are in-person, outside and within the ecosystem of the plant(s). Students will learn botanical ID, look alikes, growth habits and harvesting ethics, plant processing and preparations. We will work with both wild and cultivated plants with edible and/or medicinal uses based on the class theme. Students are encouraged to bring their own in-field medicine making materials to experience the full process of field to kitchen medicine.


Budding Blooms

From sitka spruce tips to elderflowers, oregon grape inflorescence, lilac blooms, rosebuds, maple blossoms, red flowering currant, dandelion flowers, to the many many more blooming flowers- the air is filled with scent and the scenery is showing more colors. Lets try to capture what we can, making sweet (and bitter) foods and drinks and aromatic (and soothing) body oils. The blooms of this season offer beauty in so many ways…
