A wild edibles adventure will be held from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. Saturday, May 26, at Cove Creek Gap next to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in the Cataloochee area of Haywood County. The day will be spent hiking and foraging for wild edibles with landowner Chip Hultquist, and then a lunch will be made out of what was found. This is an event sponsored by the Southern Appalachian Highlands Conservancy.

The hike will be held on a private, preserved tract along the Cataloochee Divide.

The cost is $25 for conservancy members and $35 for non-members. Directions will be provided when reservations are made.
