I received this announcement from Beyond Today, a grass-roots organization in Lincoln Square.
Urban Foraging Walk with Nance Klehm-July 12
*Join us for an Urban Foraging Walk in Ravenswood
Sunday, July 12th, 2009
11 am -1 pm*
Meeting Place Waters School Garden (Sunnyside and
Campbell near Lincoln Square)
Nance Klehm has been foraging urban areas and
particularly Chicago for medicines, foods and
seeds for several years. She believes that urban
foraging is a wonderful way to connect directly
to all urban land whether managed forest, coddled
backyards, heavily trafficked public parks,
lonesome transportation ways and so-called vacant
lots.
Come curious and with a few paper bags, cameras, or sketchbooks and learn
about what plants are sharing this city with you!
Urban forage walks are $10-$20

Man : I can't understand how a poet like you can eat that stuff.
T. S. Eliot: Ah, but you're not a poet.
