  3. I have a group of people that are interested in foraging. We live near Elk Neck State Park. Could you provide information for how we could arrange for a class. Would winter, Spring, or summer be best?

  4. Sept 2024 …yes it is time to go on a foray, better on the Eastern Shore or along the bay watershed than in the D.C. area (see MAW-DC for that)…

  5. My mom is coming to town and I am hoping to take a class with her next week! If you know of any happening near Baltimore please let me know via email! I am ecstatic to learn about foraging, different practices and how to participate sustainably.
