Spring Wild Edibles Hike

Join local self-sufficiency enthusiast Shawn Dailey for a hike to identify wild edible plants.  The tour will start at the Miller Observatory and will cover approximately 2.5 miles of hilly terrain.  A wild-foods tasting will follow the hike. Participants should have a water bottle, hiking boots or other suitable footwear, appropriate outerwear for the weather, and most importantly, an adventurous spirit.  From downtown Mt. Vernon, travel 4 miles east on S.R. 229. Just before reaching Laymon Road, turn left on access road marked with observatory sign.
