City of (Food) Forest Day: an edible street tree tour

Our street trees do so much: cool our homes, clean the air, mitigate stormwater, provide habitat for wildlife...but did you know they can, at times, provide food and medicine for us as well? During this urban canopy foraging walk we’ll learn the history and culinary uses of some of our most common street trees. We’ll sample a few tasty treats along the way, and imagine a future where our streets are clean enough to eat off of.

WARNING: The consumption of novel and/or wild foods is voluntary, and done at the event participant’s own risk. Folks with food allergies, complex health challenges, or who are pregnant/nursing should use an abundance of caution. All participants are expected to sign the accompanying liability waiver prior to attending the event.

Time: 11:00 am — 1:00 pm EDT
