Walk with Amyrose as she introduces you to our plant sister: violet. She gives us both food and medicine. She is an extremely versatile plant, prolific producer, and hardy perennial in North America. Violet is easy to identify and is a great edible to start your journey in foraging and gathering.

Here is a list of what you will find in the workshop below:

  • Three videos by Amyrose Foll.
  • A downloadable PDF “handout” to help get you started.
