Prospect Park (Teens/Adults)
Wildman Steve is a quite the character, but a devoted and invaluable resource for learning about the world around us! Highly recommend this insightful and surprisingly affordable experience. -
Prospect Park (Teens/Adults)
It was great class and teacher! However please check hus website for the actual info of the class! Meeting location is the same but the time is probably different! Definitely worth it, he was very knowledgeable and funny! -
Prospect Park (Teens/Adults)
Steve and Violet were immensely knowledgeable and I recommend this walk to anyone curious about connecting with the plants in their path. As an amateur forager, I left with several new plant allies to name and work with as food and medicine. Disclaimer: brace yourself for some seriously corny jokes :-) -
Prospect Park (Teens/Adults)
wildman steve brill is an incredible teacher & entertainer! we had a blast learning about edible (& inedible) plants right here in nyc -
Prospect Park (Teens/Adults)
Comprehensive and informative, really cool practical knowledge and fun guidance! -
Prospect Park (Teens/Adults)
This could not have been any better. Mr. Wildman is about as entertaining and informative as any instructor ever. Bring a friend and take a walk around the park eating the edible plants you walk past un-knowingly every day. Make sure to bring water and a lunch unless you want to subsist on gout weed alone! Bring a plastic or paper bag if you want to keep some plants for recipes. We made a great pesto from the greens we collected. -
Prospect Park (Teens/Adults)
Wildman Steve is a wonderful naturalist and guide. He shared so much with us, lore, botany, stories, herbalism. I learned a lot. I have been very eager to learn about foraging and he set me up. -
Central Park (Teens/Adults)
Loved it. But I think there were too many people. Walks should be smaller -
Central Park (Teens/Adults)
this was so much fun! recommend to everyone who loves nature -
Prospect Park (Teens/Adults)
