Friends of Oak Cliff Parks || Foraging Walk – Bob Richie (AT)
Saturday, March 22, 2025 || 12noon – 2pm CT

Pre-registration is required.
Limit of 30 participants only

Description: “Foraging is a fun way to hike in the woods while gathering wild foods that you can eat! Think wild blackberries, nuts, fungi, nettles, and other plants. While our ancestors relied on foraging, today, it’s more about a way to go outdoors, get exercise, and get to know the natural world.” Join us for a walk with Bob Richie & learn what to look for.

The conservation area is an 78 acre tract of land with an island of native Texas prairie. Over 150 wildflower species were identified by master naturalist legend Jim Varnum ten years ago.

We will be meeting in the recently completed outdoor classroom. Everyone is invited to attend, and there is no charge. Closed toed shoes are recommended. Water and insect repellant will be provided.
