Wildcrafting Wednesdays A program brought to you
by a partnership between One World Adventure, Seven Pines Survival
and DeSoto State Park. Wildcrafting is a term for the age-old
practice of collecting plant materials in their natural habitat for
food, medicine, and craft. These classes are for anyone to build
wildcrafting skills and deepen your connection with the natural
world. It's also a great program for home-school groups that will
help students develop their observation skills, critical thinking and
natural intelligence. Led by naturalist Robert Wilson, you will
learn Wildcrafting from ethical harvesting to creating nature's
medicine cabinet. Most of all, you will be participating hands-on in
nature, making it a meaningful and memorable activity. What to bring:
Water bottle, notebook and pencil, camera. DeSoto State Park $12 per
person - 1 hour class. Pre-registration is required-limited to 10
