## Resource

If you’ve ever been curious about foraging in the wild, or felt intimidated by where to start, this week’s episode of the Peak Northwest podcast is for you. Foraging can seem like a daunting hobby to get into, but it doesn’t have to be. On this week’s episode, we explore Wildwood Folk School, a nonprofit organization dedicated to teaching people how to forage for wild plants, understand local ecosystems and build community through outdoor education. Guest Shelby Lynn, foraging instructor for Wildwood Folk School, shares insights into their programs, how to get involved and why foraging is about more than just finding food. Here are some highlights from this week’s show: What exactly is a folk school. Wildwood Folk School’s free foraging plants walks and other programs. The essentials of foraging responsibly and targeting invasive species. How to use your bounty for cooking, crafting or medicinal purposes. Learn more about your ad choices.
