Discover the Edible Landscape of the San Jacinto Battleground

In the 1830s, the prairie and marshlands surrounding the San Jacinto Battleground were rich with native, edible plants. Indigenous communities and early Texian settlers relied on these natural resources for sustenance. Thanks to dedicated prairie restoration efforts, many of these native plants have returned to the landscape.

Join Dr. Mark Merriwether Vorderbruggen, a renowned foraging expert from Foraging Texas, for a guided walk through the historic battleground on Saturday, November 14, 2026. Participants will learn how to identify and forage for wild edible plants in their natural habitat.
