About this Event

Due to rain forecasts, this event has been rescheduled from its orginal October date.

In honor of Food Waste Prevention Week, join us for a scavenger hunt in the native-plant garden at Teaism’s Dupont Circle location. Search for special native plants, food waste-fighting intel, and other good things in the green space just in front of the restaurant.
