Calgary’s grassland–foothill transition holds a unique wealth of wild flavour. From berries to herbs, roots to flowers, the region's flavours can be found right within the city.
Your guide will introduce you to 15–20 edible wild species, with a strong focus on practical use in the kitchen. Learn how to incorporate wild ingredients into everyday meals: from savoury dishes to desserts, and foraged beverages too.
Whether you're new to foraging or deepening your practice, this walk offers both knowledge and inspiration—with a grounded, respectful approach to land and seasonality.
