Wild Food Picnic
Bring a dish made from or containing a wild food from the Okanagan.
Location: Coldstream Park, below Coldstream Public School
Bring: your appetite and your own portable dishes.
When collecting wild edibles it’s important to remember a few things:
a) ensure your food actually is edible
b) we encourage collecting on private land
c) collect away from pathways and roadways to avoid contamination
d) forage like a deer – choose sporadically, never take more than 30% of a population and save the best looking ones for the insects and animals that rely on them
