OKLAHOMA WILDCRAFTING
Osiyo and welcome. We are
located in North Central Oklahoma, along the Cimmaron River.
I have led foraging classes and seminars in Oklahoma for the last 10 years. I
learned much of my foraging for wild foods, herbs and mushrooms from my
Grandmother who was Cherokee. I not only teach, but live my life this
way. Oklahoma is the number two state in
the United States
for plant diversity. From the Trail of Tears to relocation
in Oklahoma
the Tsalagi have survived by their foraging knowledge. When taken from
their homeland they had to learn and adjust to a new land with unknown plants. Through
the years I have added the knowledge of wildcrafting from the Dust Bowl
and The Depression. To Oklahomans the use of wild foods is an
everyday practice to many, in our rural areas.
Terrain
for our walks through fields and hardwoods require proper clothing and
at times tick repellent. All participants must sign waiver to
walk. Small children are not allowed on walks due to the
area we walk in. . All walks are
free as I believe as my grandmother, we do not sell what is not ours.
Below are this
years classes, come walk the path to wild foods with us. Wado, Jackie
