Over 40 people participated in the Edible Plant Walk.

Cohasset is home to many edible plants some that are more delicious and nutritious than their cultivated counterparts.

Walking in and around the Holly Hill Farm property, participants learned about different species of edible herbaceous plants, plus keys to their safe identification, information on edible portions, seasons of availability, preparation, and guidelines for safe and environmentally responsible foraging.

It was a day of discovery and learning. Over 40 people attended the walk and many participants were surprised by how many common edible plants grow wild in their community.
