Description
These school holidays, take the kids on an edible foraging tour of Callan Park!
Join Diego Bonetto, renowned forager and author of best-selling book Eat Weeds, for a 1-hour guided tour of Callan Park, where you will be introduced to the wonders of edible weeds.
Learn about common plants growing in your garden, parks, and reserves, such as plantain, dandelion, chickweed and sow-thistle. Many of these plants are often seen as weeds, but to others they are a delicious salad or a seasonal treat. Discover how these plants have been used for food, crafts, and natural remedies.
Learn safe ways to harvest urban 'wild' plants and enrich your diet with vitamins and minerals.
This program is suitable for children aged from 5 years.
