Event Description

with Hank and Vera Jones

Join us on a walking tours in the Somerset Ward and Capital Ward to discover and learn about edible treenuts already growing across the city. Late summer is the perfect time for identifying these trees with the nuts close to ripening and easy to see. Plan for a return visit at harvest time.

Comment by Katherine Forster on August 12, 2011 at 5:16pm: Sorry Shai - we moved and I didn't update this. My number is 613-261-2027.

It's the Lisgar Street Entrance for the City of Ottawa building - the official address is 110 Laurier but the building backs onto Lisgar. Call me if you need anymore details.

See you on Sunday! Remember this one is in the morning!
