Foraging Firsts (CANCELLED)
*Due to the current lapse in federal government appropriations, all events at Big Thicket National Preserve are cancelled until funding has been restored and normal operations resume.
Join Ranger Nathan for an introduction into identifying the wild edibles of Big Thicket!
The guided portion of the hike will be a over a mile, lasting 60 minutes or more depending on weather and seasonal conditions. Both seasoned naturalists and first-time foragers are welcome, and are certain to have a "berry" good time.
After the program concludes, participants will have multiple routes to return to the parking area at their own pace. Visitors should prepare for at least a 2 mile, 90 minute commitment in total. No food will be consumed or harvested on this walk.
No reservations required. Meet at Kirby Nature Trail.
