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. Please dress appropriately for the weather. Fairview/False Creek South Neighbourhood Food Network is a new and emerging Neighbourhood Food Network sponsored by Village Vancouver. Join us for a potluck and Food Network visioning session on October 23rd.
