It can be easy to forget about the wealth of food that grows all around us. In this West End Seniors Garden Club workshop and walk, you'll 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. Please dress appropriately for the weather.
We'll have a seed library there - if you come a few minutes early, you can get some free seeds for your garden, or swap or donate seeds.
Cost: Free. All ages welcome, especially seniors.
Registration: #48365 WECC 604.257.8333 or Native Edibles (https://ca.apm.activecommunities.com/vancouver/Activity_Search/native-edibles-workshop-walk/43370) or in person. If you end up on the waiting list, don't worry! We're adding more spaces and you're assured a spot regardless.
