Forage Oakland A project that works to address how we eat every day, and how everyone<br />

can benefit from viewing their neighborhood as a veritable edible map, considering what is<br />

cultivated in any given neighborhood and why, and what histories influence those choices. The<br />

gleaning of unharvested fruits; the meeting of new neighbors; the gathering and redistribution<br />

of fruits that would otherwise be wasted - can be powerful and can work to create a new<br />

paradigm around how we presently think about food in our collective consciousness.<br />
