August 5, 2025 @ 5:30 pm – 7:00 pm
Join us for our Youth Foraging Workshop!
This event is Part 1 of the YouthCAT & qathet Climate Alliance “Local Food Systems Youth Event Series,” bringing youth and young adults ages 15-30ish together to connect around themes of local/global food systems, sustainability, and hands-on fun.
This workshop will be located at ʔahʔǰumɩχʷ, colonially known as Willingdon Beach, a significant and historic site where Tla’amin people have gathered for fishing, canoe landings, and sports.
We’ll learn to identify local edible plants and flowers, forage them, and then brew teas to sample the different plants.
Plus, we will make our own to-go tea blends using Ecossentials tea ingredients (like mint, licorice and elderberry) and also get to take home a local foraging guide zine!
This event takes place on the traditional territory of the Tla’amin Nation.
