Have you ever picked a dandelion in a park, harvested a wild blueberry, taken a pebble from the public beach, or foraged raspberries at the Bronx River Foodway…you are a Forager! Foragers include any person who seeks food or provisions for desire or consumption. Current NYC policies limit public foraging practices.

Join the Foodway Team in hosting a regional convening shaped for foragers, land stewards, and communities interested in foraging and access to public edible landscapes!  Connect with regional foragers, share practices and values, name challenges, and consider solutions, all to envision a new citywide foraging policy.

Community Seed Exchange will take place throughout the event, please bring any native or vegetable seeds you may want to share with participants.  Seeds from a citywide seed library will be available. The event will close with a Winter Walk through Starlight Park where we will make natural observations and process some of our thoughts from the workshop.

Registration is forthcoming! Email Foodway@bronxriver.org or call 718-542-4124 for questions or concerns
