Community Corner

Winter Survival Foraging @ Prospect Park, Brooklyn, NY

$25 Suggested Donation - RSVP required for meeting
location: Dan@returntonature.us




Join Dan as he helps to uncover the skills necessary to survive
during an emergency, even in the coldest conditions. We’ll explore the
surrounding areas for food and medicine that can be utilized in a situation
such as we saw with Hurricane Sandy. We’ll discover where and how to track and
catalog medicinal foods, shelter items, utilitarian plants, and how to purify
and acquire water from the landscape.



DRESS WARM – Layers of wool
recommended



Bring a camera and notebook for recording the
plants we find.

I’m currently planning for the Return to Nature
2014 class season. Anyone who knows interested people or centers from yoga to
community centers, health food stores, farmers markets, gardening
organizations, back yards, and anyone else that can host or help organize
workshops, please be in touch. Also looking to expand the Return to Nature team
including people to post flyers, help organize classes, and do any further
promotional work.



Let’s get together, build community, and Reclaim
our herbal, foraging, and healthcare skillset.
