Event Description

It can be easy to forget about the wealth of food that grows all around us. Come out and learn about edible plants that call our region home. Lori Snyder from the Metis Nation will discuss how to identify and harvest wild, edible, and medicinal plants in an ethical way. Weather permitting, most of the workshop will be outside. Please wear comfortable walking shoes.

Free or by donation. Please pre-register here or thru Marpole Place Neighbourhood House (604.266.5301 or marpoleplace@shaw.ca).

The Marpole Neighbourhood Food Network Seed Library will be present - you can get some free seeds for your garden or swap or donate some seeds. (Please come a little early.)

Marpole NFN is co-sponsored by Marpole Place Neighbourhood House and Village Vancouver.
