The Aspen Parkland is rich in biodiversity, holding vast amounts of fruit, nuts, mushrooms — native species and introduced. It’s your lead guide’s home turf, and the Edmonton river valley walks are where all of this started.
We offer weekend walks in the morning and afternoon, and now invite you to join us for weekday evening walks as well. On each walk, you’ll discover 15–25 species of wild edible plants and fungi, with a strong focus on how to use them in your home kitchen — from savory dishes to desserts and beverages.
Whether you’re new to foraging or looking to deepen your knowledge, we’ll get you started or help you level up.
