Blackwood Canyon SNO-PARK

The Sierra is full of wild food — if you know how to see it. Spend an afternoon foraging your way up Blackwood Canyon, learning to find and identify the edible plants growing along the creek and across the meadows: which ones you can eat, which parts, when they're ready, and how to gather without harming the plant or the place.
We'll move slowly and hands-on, keying out wild greens, berries, and edible flowers as we go. Where a plant carries a medicinal story too, we'll dig into it — through both Western herbalism and the energetics of Chinese medicine — but the through-line is learning to read this landscape as a pantry. Expect a guided plant sit, a straight-talking conversation about ethical and sustainable harvesting in the Tahoe basin, and the folklore and food history behind each species.
No experience needed. Curious first-timers and seasoned foragers both leave knowing more than they came with — and recognizing wild edibles they've walked past for years.

Dinner With Your Dog to benefit Shakespeare Animal Fund

Alpine
 Meadows offers one of the basin’s most abundant displays of medicinal 
plants and berries, such as elderberry and thimbleberry.
Join
 Dr. Elena Roemer, L.Ac and Brian Wallace, Certified California 
Naturalist, as we explore the edible and medicinal plants of the Lake 
Tahoe basin through both Western herbal actions and Chinese medicine 
energetics, while weaving in local ecology, plant folklore, and seasonal
 rhythms. We’ll focus on learning how to truly see and relate to 
plants—how to identify them, understand their properties, and approach 
harvesting with respect and restraint. The walk includes a guided plant 
sit and discussion of ethical wildcrafting, as well as gaining a clear 
understanding of when to harvest, while inviting a grounded, embodied 
relationship with the living landscape.
Alpine Meadows offers one 
of the basin’s most abundant displays of medicinal and edible plant 
life, with beloved species such as elder, arnica, and thimbleberry 
thriving among open meadows and mountain slopes.
