Where the Wild Things Are Walks

While you are here visiting the 1896 House Inn, getting outdoors in this great weather should be on your "to to" list!

Williams College is putting on a series of Food Foraging Walks taking place locally.

Saturday, April 28 (11am – 1pm) — Aimee Gelinas at Stone Hill in Williamstown

Sunday, April 29 (1 – 3pm) — Blanche Derby at Field Farm in Williamstown

Saturday, May 5 (1 – 3pm) — Russ Cohen at Money Brook Trail in Williamstown

Sunday, May 6 (1 – 3pm) — Russ Cohen at Cole Field in Williamstown

Each walk costs $25 per person, rain or shine.

Register for the events by going to http://www.eventbrite.com/org/2134859133?s=7793761

PLEASE NOTE, participants are required to pre-register for all foraging walks at least 48 hours in advance. Walk-ins are not permitted as there is limited space for each walk. Registration is non-refundable.

Location is subject to change but will remain in the northern or southern Berkshires as originally planned. Registered participants will receive confirmation of location via email the week of the walk. Please wear appropriate clothing and shoes for hiking and weather conditions.

The walks will be led by instructors who will focus on responsible harvesting techniques, recipes, and the history of foraging in the Berkshires. One goal of the walks is to educate the public on ecosystem balance and sustainability.
