Did you know that there exist approximately 75,000 edible plant species in the world? But that only 30 species produce 95% of the food we eat? This means that more than 99% of edible plant species are drastically underutilized. And a surprising number of these species live right in your own backyard— even in urban environments! Join Maria Wesserle of Four Season Foraging to learn some foraging basics and discover common wild edible plants.

Meet at the Como Park in St. Paul — picnic area northwest of Estabrook Drive & Midway Parkway (near the zoo). For the exact location, see the MN Rovers website.

Free and open to the public.
