No prior knowledge is necessary. Just your enthusiasm to learn, ready ears and ready to try new things and sense of humour😊
We will have a very necessary 30-40min introduction talk with some unique understandings of what plants are, how we can help them and how they can help us. All with good scientific attitude. We will also learn some tools/attitudes to foraging and then walk around and learn about 10-12 plants that can be found nearly in every backyard during this workshop, which out of my experience have proven to be most practical and easiest to remember.
3 hours is a must to do all the above.
