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 and botanist, 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)

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