The purpose of this workshop is to open up a whole new perspective on foraging for food. It will provide advice on sustainable ocean foraging, information on what seaweeds on the beach are edible and how to identify them, how to follow local rules and regulations for collection, and more!

Learn natural history, eco-friendly ethics and risk management!

UCSB Adventure Programs is very proud to offer a place-based Zoom-workshop series by our own staff naturalist, Kirsten Cook, designed to promote nature awareness, develop healthy outdoor ethics, increase knowledge about local ecosystems, and teach about personal care and safety when recreating in the outdoors.

Come join us for discussions and activities on a host of fascinating topics including plant and animal identification, risk awareness and management, outdoor recreation tips and tricks, local indigenous ethnobotany and history, seaside ecosystems, Leave No Trace principles, sustainable foraging, local geology and geography, and so much more!

These will be weekly, 30 minute interactive Zoom-call workshops, presented by our Adventure Programs staff. Join us each week for another exciting topic on our place based nature series!
