There is a new trend taking off in cities around the world – urban foraging entails sourcing free fruits, greens, vegetables and other wild foods from around the city.
In this Planet Green video, “G Word” correspondent Stephen Brooks creates an exotic salad from his urban foraging adventure in Los Angeles.
The web is full of guides to urban foraging locations and information about wild food sources e.g. Portland’s Urban Edibles is a community database of wild food with a Google map showing locations and food sources – would be great to see one of these in South Africa.
