Visit Ediblescapes
Discover a community edible forest garden where people learn with nature through observation, conversation and shared experience.Whether you visit independently, bring a community group or arrange a guided learning experience, the living garden offers many ways to explore the Ediblescapes Learning Network.

Education Visits

Education Visits are part of the Ediblescapes Learning Network, where the Community Edible Forest Garden serves as a living outdoor classroom for schools, universities and community groups. Rather than simply teaching about gardening, Ediblescapes invites learners to observe living systems, ask questions and discover how food, ecology and community are connected.
