A great abundance of edible and medicinal wild plants and mushrooms makes this park a great place for foraging in late summer.

Burdock, an expensive detoxifying herb sold in health food stores, abounds in cultivated areas throughout the park. You can use this invasive East Asian staple as a superb root vegetable, or even turn it into "Wildman's" Vegan Beef Jerky. 

This 4-hour foraging tour of Prospect Park begins at 11:45am. Call (914) 835-2153 at least 24 hours in advance to reserve a place.
