Foraging Workshop with Sean Rowe

Cost of Admission: Members FREE; Non-Members $10 suggested donation
This is an in-person event. Registration is required.
This workshop focuses on connecting you with the local edible flora around you. Late spring / early summer in the Northeast brings wild greens like Amaranth, Common milkweed buds and delicious wild fruit like Asian Mulberry and Serviceberry.
This two-hour walk will inspire you with possibilities. While we won’t have time to prepare edibles we find, you will learn the basics of responsible foraging, introductory identification skills, and how to recognize some of our local toxic plants so you know what not to bring home. Take a walk with me and build your wild plant confidence! To learn more, check out this video!

From Sean: My Rowe's journey began as a teenager when I read The Tracker by renowned naturalist Tom Brown. That book lit a spark that has continued to burn alongside my musical path. After attending courses at Brown’s wilderness school, I spent 2007 immersed in primitive living skills at Hawk Circle Wilderness Center in Cherry Valley, NY. That year deepened my commitment to foraging and wild living. I’ve also had the privilege of learning directly from wild plant expert Samuel Thayer, whose generosity in sharing his knowledge has been instrumental to my growth.
Following a 24-day solo survival trek in the Catskills, my focus shifted almost entirely to the world of wild food. Harvesting plants and mushrooms, preparing nourishing meals, crafting utilitarian tools, and making natural medicines have all become part of a dynamic, daily relationship with nature that hiking, camping and nature observation alone could never provide.
Every day, I look forward to eating something that can’t be found in any grocery store. The lifestyle of a modern forager is one of adventure, thrift, minimalism, mystery, and optimal health. It is a bold act of connecting to the land by participating in it directly.
I’d love to share this journey with you—whether through my YouTube channel, group walks, or private foraging classes. Come explore the woods with me.
