Join Certified California Naturalist Mary Good on a hike exploring the medicinal and edible plants of the park. Weaving in natural history, ethnobotany, herbalism and folktales, this walk will open your senses, as well as your curiosity to the abundance of plantlore in Sonoma County.
Tickets are $15 for adults, $7.5 for youth (12-17 year olds; all children under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian), students, Sugarloaf members, and Sugarloaf or RFO volunteers, and free for children under 12. Meet at the White Barn parking lot. Bring at least a quart of water and a lunch and be prepared for a leisurely 2-3 mile walk with a 250-ft climb. Wear layers, appropriate footwear for slippery (and possibly muddy) terrain, and sun protection. Heavy rains cancel; parking fees apply.
Edible plant information is for educational purposes only. Foraging is illegal in CA State Parks.
Ease of access: The White Barn parking lot has one van-accessible designated parking spot, one accessible porta-potty, and a potable water spigot near the information kiosk. Creekside Trail has two trailheads. The trailhead from the White Barn is ADA compliant for about 0.1 miles. Our route for this hike veers off to the left across a narrow bridge and single-track trail of that connects with Hillside Trail after 0.25 miles. Hillside Trail is a gravel and dirt road with two 100-ft hills. Meadow is a mostly flat composite trail manageable by strollers and wheelchairs from the trailhead to about a mile in, although officially not an ADA-compliant trail. The entire loop is a fire road sometimes driven by authorized vehicles.
