Join award-winning botanist Kate MacQuarrie for a guided walk through meadow, old field woodland, and mature forest in Central PEI. You'll learn to identify some of the common edible, medicinal, and toxic plants of these habitats - and maybe even a few mushrooms! Kate encourages people to explore plants using touch, taste, and smell and throws a little ecology into her workshops, too. Whether you're a life-long Islander, Islander-by-choice, or just visiting, you'll learn new things about Prince Edward Island during this event.

This is a two-hour walk at a slow to moderate pace along an uneven trail through hilly terrain. The event goes rain or shine unless it's dangerous (eg. thunder, torrential rain, high winds). Wear comfortable footwear and dress for the weather. Tickets are non-refundable.
