Spring Foraging Expedition

Sunday May 22 at 3:00 pm

Drott Lodge will embark on a Spring Foraging Walk in Wheaton Regional Park. The walk will be led by Matt Cohen of Matt’s Habitats. Matt is a landscaper who became interested in foraging after spending time working on an organic farm; he hosts between 10 - 15 walks each year in the Takoma Park and Silver Spring area in search of wild edibles. Cohen points out more than two dozen types of plants and trees, giving a bit of historical background on some and cooking recommendations on others.

Please join us at 1:30 for a picnic lunch prior to our foraging trip. You may bring your own or pre-order a boxed lunch from Panera (ordering info. will be sent closer to the time). Following our foraging trip, participants will meet for fika at picnic shelter #2 at the park

Our local lodge, Drott Lodge No. 168, was chartered on February 18th, 1910 in Washington, D.C. and is one of four local lodges governed by District Lodge No. 9 Pennsylvania. Today, Drott Lodge maintains a multi-generational roll of 115-plus members from the District of Columbia, Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia. The Lodge meets most 2nd Sundays of the month at St. James’ Episcopal Church in Potomac, Maryland. Most meetings include a regular business meeting followed by a cultural presentation by a visiting speaker or a member of the lodge. The Lodge is well known throughout the greater Washington metropolitan area for its annual Swedish Bazaar held the first Saturday in November.
