Wild Foraging at Lake Meyer

Forage for wild edible plants with Winneshiek County Conservation naturalists at 5:30 pm on Thursday, April 25th at Lake Meyer Park & Campground.

The foraging hike will begin promptly at 5:30 pm, departing from the campground shelter to explore the trails around Lake Meyer. After the hike, we will bring our finds back to the shelter to cook and taste-test.

The event is free and open to all ages. Children under the age of 12 must be accompanied by an adult caregiver. The trails at Lake Meyer are unpaved and may be slippery. Participants should wear clothes and shoes appropriate for a muddy trail.

Registration is required. Please call the Winneshiek County Conservation office at (563) 534-7145 to let us know you plan on attending. Please meet at the Lake Meyer Campground shelter at 5:30 pm for this event.

In case of poor weather conditions, watch the Winneshiek County Conservation website or Facebook page for any changes in plans due to weather.
