Edible Natives for City Landscapes

With growing space in cities often in short supply, most garden beds are filled with tomatoes, peppers, and other annual crops. But how about the six inches of soil along the chain link fence? What about the shady soil on the north side of the building? How about that abandoned lot across the road from the community garden? Learn about native edible species that can be grown wherever you can find soil. With an emphasis on low-maintenance and resilient species, these plants offer options for anyone interested in growing food.

Please note: We do not make video or audio recordings of classes or programs available after the fact, because we believe education is interactive, with instructors and students building a community and culture of learning. Some programs may be recorded strictly for instructor-training purposes. Please visit this page to review this and other FAQs about our policies.
