Annie's commentary:
OK, yes, it's not free, but if you think of the ticket price as an "investment" for FUTURE FREE FOOD you may find this workshop worth your while. I'll be there, anyway, and thought it might interest some of this group as well!

About the workshop:
Learn about the most common species growing in your garden, along the green belts and in parks and reserves. Find out how they have been used for food, craft and natural remedies. Discover ways to safely harvest from the urban 'wild' and enrich your diet with vitamins and minerals. This is a family, wheelchair and pet friendly stroll in the park, dress for the weather and bring camera and notebook if you wish to retain the information.

All guests will be issued with a booklet detailing 20 of the most common species to take home with you.
