About the Program: Our Wildfood Walk and Talk involves learning about the various native plant species in the Southern California region, specifically Los Padres National Forest. Hikes are led by environmental biologist Gisa Seeholzer, who can provide insight into the ecology and history of the area. These hikes promote awareness and appreciation of the natural world and help people develop a deeper understanding of the plants and fungi, both invasive and native to Southern California. Many people find our Native Plant Walk a relaxing and educational way to spend time in nature.
