Wild Weed Walk for Sunday in Toronto - Postponed!, August 7, 2011

Wild Weed Walk for Sunday in Toronto - Postponed!
It looks like light rain but with no respite until the afternoon. If it were intermittent showers, I'd go ahead with the herb walk, but 2 hours of rain isn't so fun. I'm going to reschedule the Wild Weed Walk for a later date, if possible...

Wild Weed Herbal and Medicinal Plant Walk, August 2, 2011 , posted by Jennie Akse , jennieakse@gmail.com

Wild Weed Herb Walks at High Park

Cost: Payment required - 5.00 Canadian Dollars

We\'ll gather at a convenient location in High Park (see wildweedwalks.posterous.com), where you\'ll meet up with other wild weeders and head out to discover the amazing edible plants and medicinal herbs growing wild in this area.

We'll identify, taste and share information about how these plants can be harvested and used for food and/or medicine.

In case of light rain, we'll meet as planned, and then be on our way. If there's a downpour, we'll postpone the walk, and I'll contact everyone by email. Feel free to bring your camera and notebook to record your many discoveries!

Cost: 5 dollars

The Walk is typically 2 hours, but participants are invited to stay longer for further exploration, for additional questions-and-answers or simply to continue enjoying the outdoors with like-minded folk.

Just show up, or even better, let me know you are coming: jennieakse@gmail.com
