July Module: Intro to Plants
Module 4: Intro to Plants (July)
This Module introduces foragers to the concepts and terminology of botany. We will also review the essentials of plant anatomy and physiology. As usual, the focus will be on the aspects of these topics that are useful to foragers.
Foraging 101 is designed to help you learn to become a confident, independent forager. Most of the learning is done in an online classroom and in your own backyard. The course is designed with 7, 1 month long Modules. Each Module will include 1-1.5 hours of videos introducing you to important foraging skills as well as 12-15 “focus plant” segments to help you locate and identify seasonal edibles and medicinals. There will also be 15-25 pages of reading material, worksheets, self-quizzes, and a scavenger hunt designed to help you learn the material and keep track of your progress. The class also has a discussion forum where you can ask questions at any time. Nearly all of the online content is exclusive to this course and cannot be found anywhere else.
