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.
Complimentary tea will be available to fuel your search, along with Ginger & Pear Bread Pudding made from leftovers of Teaism's classic Ginger Scones, in the spirit of reducing food waste!

- Brian Wright, gardener and tea importer, will be available to chat about the native plants;
- Rachael Jackson with EatOrToss.com will be available to chat about food waste; and
- Lela Singh, from Teaism’s management team, will be available to answer questions about Teaism.
Kids welcome!
