Grow Your Own will host a hands-on workshop on learning how to identify and cook up wild edibles on June 2 starting at the Center for an Agricultural Economy office at 140 Junction Road in Hardwick at 11:30. Participants will share a meal and chances to taste and try various wild plants. Erin Rosenthal and Lucian Avery will lead the workshop, which will go until 2:30 p.m. including the meal.
