Urban Foraging in Prospect Park with Leda Meredith

WHEN: Saturday, July 19th.

WHERE: Prospect Park, Brooklyn 
Meet at the Grand Army Plaza Entrance in front of the Gazebo.

HOW MUCH: $15. SOLD OUT!

WHAT:
Food from the park?  What!?  Yes, indeed you can find food right in the city's playground. Take a guided tour of the urban forest, also known as Prospect Park, with forager, committed locavore, botanist, (and June Supper Club Speaker!) Leda Meredith. Leda will be sharing her wisdom and teaching  us how to identify edibles in the urban terrain. At the end of the foraging walk, we will spend some time sitting in the shade while Leda takes Q& A and we taste treats made with wild edible ingredients.

WHAT TO BRING:
• Comfortable walking shoes
• Water
• Pen and Pad (there won’t be a test, but you may want to jot a few notes!)
• Digital Camera (to photo the plants we ID and of course to capture the many happy memories of urban foraging)

BONUS:
For those of you who missed Leda at the June Supper Club, you have another chance to purchase her new memoir, Botany, Ballet & Dinner from Scratch, at the foraging event.  Citywide Supper Club Coordinator, Joanna, purchased a copy at the June event and was so enthralled by the stories that she finished the book in it's entirety by the next morning.  We highly recommend it!  (Bring cash or a check since there are no credit card machines in Prospect Park - $18.50 with tax).
