Spring Foraging Walk


Adult Education / Experience and Explore -
Adult Winter-Spring 2024

The spring season’s beauty and bounty intersect in the realm of feral food. Tasty and nutrient dense, many common plants offer us opportunities for broadening our palate as well as connecting us to our surroundings. Along this accessible wander, participants will be introduced to a host of edible roots, shoots, flowers, leaves and fruit. Come ready to engage your senses (taste buds especially!) while lavishing attention upon the overlooked. This program will run rain or shine. 

Rob Riman

Instructor

Rob Riman spent his youth roaming Lake Michigan’s upland ravines and paddling nearby headwaters of the Mississippi. Following studies in geology, and a decade leading remote expeditions across North America, from alpine heights to coastal backwaters, he went on to built traditional wooden boats with NYC youth, and pursued graduate work in architecture and sustainable design, leading to his co-founding of the local nonprofit Home Energy Efficiency Team (HEET). Today, he delights in his roles as naturalist and place-sourced educator, embracing landful living practices, while working to decolonize his own learning. Homeschool dad to two semi-feral children and avid forager, Rob resides along the former shoreline of the Quinobequin’s impounded estuary, on traditional territory of the Massachusett and Pawtucket people.
