Tuesdays, June 14 and July 19, 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm – Foraging Walks with Russ Cohen

The Greater Boston area is home to over 150 species of edible wild plants, many of which are more nutritious and/or flavorful than their cultivated counterparts. Join Russ Cohen, expert forager and author of Wild Plants I Have Known…and Eaten, on a 2-hour ramble through Allandale Farm, 259 Allandale Road in Brookline, to learn about at least two dozen species of edible wild plants. Pending favorable weather conditions, several edible mushroom species may be encountered as well. The program will be held twice, June 14 and July 19, from 6 – 8. Russ is a past speaker with The Garden Club of the Back Bay. You may register online ($25) at http://www.allandalefarm.com/events.html. Image from www.foodonthefood.com
