The Rochester Land Trust is planning a two-hour forging walk with Russ Cohen on June 26 from 6:00 to 8:00 pm at Church’s Field on Mattapoisett Road in Rochester. Cohen is a professional environmentalist and wild foods expert who is the author of Wild Plants I Have Known … and Eaten. More information about foraging and wild edibles may be found at his website, http://users.rcn.com/eatwild/bio.htm.
The site, Church’s Field, offers a combination of open fields, wetlands, uplands and riverbank habitat that should yield an interesting bounty of wild edibles at this time of year. For further information, call Bunny Mogilnicki at 508-763-0088 or email bunnymogilnicki@comcast.net. Please wear suitable clothing for field and forest and bring bug spray.
