Description
Celebrate native plants through a hands-on, ethnobotanical, foraging, and artistic experience. After a hayride through our natural lands, learn about the relationships Indigenous communities have with pokeweed, find out how to mindfully forage and gather pokeweed, and create watercolor paintings with your homemade pèkòn (Lenape for red dye). Painting with Pokeweed is a partnership between Mt. Cuba and Native Roots Farm Foundation. Children must be 8 or older to participate. Closed-toe shoes are recommended. Included with garden admission, advance registration required.
This program takes place in person in Mt. Cuba Center natural lands Friday, September 20, 2024 (Rain Date: Sunday, September 22, 2-4 PM).
