Goji berries are native to Asia but can grow very comfortably here in Edmonton and can be found growing wild in the river valley. After years of research, Fei has consolidated a map and written a book, The Living History of Gojis in Edmonton. Join us to learn about this wonderful community project, about Goji berries and kids can even plant their very own goji plant to take home!Fei will be on site from 4 to 7pm and will offer a special 15-minute presentation at 5pm to offer more information on her project and the interactive Edmonton Goji Map.
Kids are also welcome to join us to plant a goji plant to bring home!
This workshop is part of our Asian Heritage Month programming.
