Forage & Brew Wild Teas

Description

Imagine good conversation and a steaming cup of tea on a cold afternoon, made from plants you gathered yourself just an hour earlier.

Walk the quiet winter trails at the Boston Nature Center and learn the basics of foraging safely in winter while searching for wild edibles like fragrant White Pine needles and bright, tangy rose hips. Back inside, you will use your harvest to brew a fresh herbal tea to sip and enjoy.

Come ready to wander, taste, and unwind in the calm of the season.

What To Expect

The program starts with an outdoor walk and finishes indoors with the tea brewing. Trails are flat and easy to walk or navigate with a mobility device, though surfaces may be slippery from snow or ice at this time of year. In the event of severe weather conditions, the program may be cancelled or postponed.

More details on what to bring and expect will be emailed to you ahead of the program.
