Short documentary about urban foragers in Chicago
Posted by Mark Frauenfelder, January 7, 2009 10:40 AM | permalink

Interesting documentary about a couple of Chicagoans who find and eat edible weeds, wild berries, nettles, purslane, 
apples, and other goodies free for the taking in the urban landscape.

    Urban foragers are people who eat what grows naturally from a very unnatural place— a city. In this all-vegetarian 
Sky Full of Bacon podcast, urban foragers show us how they find food all around them. Chef-blogger Art Jackson shows us 
what's growing around his home in Pilsen, and then foraging expert Nance Klehm, Art and I nibble our way through a 
remarkable wilderness literally in the shadow of Chicago's skyscrapers.
