About this Event
A Botanical Journey Through Brooklyn’s Backyard
Leave the pavement behind and step into the lush, wilder side of the city! Join Moonstone & Mulberry and Visualizing Herbalism for an immersive plant walk through the winding trails and hidden gems of Prospect Park.
Starting at Willink Plaza, we’ll head into the park to meet the diverse community of trees, wildflowers, and "weeds" that make Brooklyn’s backyard so vibrant. Whether it’s a towering oak or a tiny sprout at your feet, every plant has a story to tell. We’re here to help you hear it.
Prepare for your noggin to explode with cool facts as we dive into:
- Field Botany: Learn the "how and why" of plant identification in a way that actually sticks.
- The Living Apothecary: Discover the traditional medicinal and culinary uses of the greenery surrounding us.
- Folklore & Storytelling: We’ll top off our botanical deep-dive with a dash of ancient myths and the strange histories of these urban plants.
This stroll is perfect for nature lovers of all levels—from total beginners to seasoned green thumbs. Come connect with the heart of Brooklyn and see the park through a whole new lens!
