Wild Invasive Plants as Food
The fact that invasive species of plants are widespread and a major threat to native ecosystems is well known, but a lesser known fact is that some of those plants are edible and delicious! Join The 3 Foragers in discovering ways of increasing awareness and combating the spread of invasive species by using our appetites as an innovative weapon, attempting to control invasive plants one bite at a time. Identification of edible invasives and preparation for meals will be discussed, as well as recipe suggestions.
