Wild Crafting Series

OFFERED: March - November 2008
LOCATION: Commonweal Garden
INSTRUCTOR: Matt Berry

Wildcrafting provides a unique bridge between Permaculture and Nature Awareness. Matt Berry, who has been practicing and teaching primitive skills and nature awareness for over a decade, blends his passion and expertise in field biology, primitive skills, horticulture and Permaculture. After spending some time with Matt, you may never look at the weeds in the corner of your garden or the oak trees in your neighborhood the same way again!

This year, we offer a series of seasonal Wild Food Walks, as well as day long and weekend skill intensives. These classes will not only help to build your wildcrafting skills, but they will also deepen your connection with the natural world.

Classes are intended for adults, however children are welcome with a registered parent.

Wild Food Walks

Join us on the second Sunday of the month for a wild food walk in and around Commonweal Garden. Learn the many uses of the seasonal flora - edible, medicinal, and more. Each walk will include important information on safety and how to 'tend the wild' in a responsible way. Join us for a wander, and finish the day with some hands-on processing of nature's bounty.

Wild Food Walks are held 12:30 - 4:00pm.
