March 12, 2026, 6:30pm - Edible Weeds, Jane VanderSchaaf
Edible weeds are often considered a nuisance but are actually nutritious and tasty. We will discover some common weeds that can either be a snack or put on the menu for main course. Most of these you might have seen before and most likely pulled. Proper identification is key and hope you leave with confidence to identify and try some!
Jane has been a Master Gardender since 2022 and lives in Isanti with her Husband. A few of her interests are permaculture, susutainabilty, edible plants and foraging. Every year she plants a garden way too big and has learned a lot of the weeds along the way.
