Hunt for Wild Cattails with Wildman Steve Brill, Sunday, Apr 15

Hunt for Wild Cattails at Stone Barns Center

 with naturalist/author "Wildman" Steve Brill

1 PM on Sunday, April 15

 

America's go-to guy for foraging, "Wildman" Steve Brill, will lead one of his world-famous foraging tours of Stone Barns Center in Pocantico Hills, NY. Here's a natural area you'll love exploring in early spring, with lots of common species, and some surprises always in store. There are cultivated areas, thickets, streams, and woodlands, all with different plant communities. Wild herbs and greens will be thriving in fields and disturbed habitats. We'll look for ground ivy, sheep sorrel, field garlic, hedge mustard, shepherd's purse, garlic mustard, and chickweed. In addition, we'll find culinary and medicinal herbs such as northern bayberry, black birch, yarrow, sassafras, and spicebush twigs.
