Join the Culture and Heritage CEC sub-committee and Gabrielle Cerberville (also known as the Chaotic Forager) for a foraging experience on Grounds. We'll venture outdoors beyond our libraries to identify and pick wild edibles growing around us in the spring and learn how to transform them in the kitchen. DIY supplies and light refreshments included!

Gabrielle Cerberville is a celebrated foraging educator, community mycologist, and climate advocate whose high-energy, humor-laced videos have attracted almost two million followers. Known online as the “Chaotic Forager” and affectionately dubbed “The Internet’s Mushroom Auntie,” she leads keynotes, workshops, and guided forays across the United States, championing accessible, ethical relationships with wild food and fungi. Gabrielle is also a PhD student at the University of Virginia, where her research in the Composition & Computer Technologies program explores how sound can deepen our dialogue with the natural world. Her debut book, "Gathered: On Foraging, Feasting, and the Seasonal Life" invites readers to reimagine taste, place, and responsibility.
