Family Campout: Wild Edibles and Fire

March 17 11:00 AM - March 18, 12:00 PM

Silverado Canyon

Saturday and Sunday will include identifying and eating wild edibles & medicinals, fire making tools, exploring the land and practicing survival skills. Saturday evening will include storytelling for the little ones (and young at heart).  Teens & adventurous parents will explore their nocturnal senses on a night hike without flashlights, guided by Earthroots Instructors.

This event is limited to 50 people (including children).

Cost per family to camp $125-$175 (sliding scale)
OR Attend just for the day (Saturday 11:00am-nightfall) IF SPACE IS AVAILABLE, and not camp, $80-$100 (sliding scale) per family.

There are no additional parking/access fees (as there would be at Casper's or other OC Parks).
