Trees provide many functions and benefits. The Urban Food Forest program is devoted to demonstrating the important function of community engagement that trees provide by showing how different trees can be harvested, processed, and prepared as a means of food. Currently, this program is solely resource-based as we provide education on trees as a means of food through a number of free online resources for the community:
