Early Fall Foraging, with Nicholas WazeeGale

Early fall is an abundant time of late fruits, regrowth of some wild greens, some roots and nuts, and big windfall mushrooms (like hen-of-the-woods!). We will cover close-to-home zones like yard edges and fencerows, as well as some deep forests and wetlands. We will survey, sample, and discuss usage and storage of these fine wild foods that can richly enhance our pantries before the big cool down.

Date: Sunday, September 15
Time: 9:00 AM - 4:30 PM
An all-wild lunch will be provided!
Ages: 12+
Location: Viola, WI

Sliding Scale Course Fee Guidelines (not including Materials Fees)

Supporter Level Ticket: $130
If you move through the world with financial ease and the means to fulfill many of your wants as well as your needs – you are able to eat out when you want, abundantly meet your needs through employment or can comfortably not work, have access to family wealth, own property, etc. – consider paying at this level, which will help us ensure the long term sustainability of our programs while keeping our offerings accessible to those with access to fewer resources.

Sustainer Level Ticket: $105
If you are able to meet your needs with relative ease while budgeting your educational and entertainment spending – for instance, you are able to take classes and eat out occasionally as long as you are mindful – consider paying at this level, which will help sustain the work of the Folk School at a modest level.

Supported Level Ticket: $80
If you struggle to fund your basic needs and have limited access to resources in your family and community, or if you would not be able to access this offering without a discounted payment option, consider paying at this level. We value your presence and contributions to our community and do not want any economic circumstances to be a barrier to attendance!
