Using Edible Landscapes to Build Community

Take a stroll in this Centretown neighbourhood and learn to identify edible trees, shrubs, bushes and herbs. Learning to appreciate edible trees and their gifts are steps toward deeper connections with community and nature. Participants will be given a handout describing trees and bushes with edible fruit.
