For this first event, enjoy an entertaining and educational slide presentation, lecture, video, and possibly live samples of Wild Foods of the Pacific Northwest. At this point in the season, many wild plants are ripe for picking. From forest trails to waterways and neighborhoods; there are lots of things to eat out there. Learn how to get the most out of your efforts to learn about wild foods. There will be a question and answer period and John will sell and sign copies of his books at the end of the presentation. This indoor presentation is offered as part of a monthly 2026 seasonal foraging educational program held at the Eugene Public Library.
