New York City is America’s capital of all things cultural—art, media, theatre, and the literary arts. With so many cultural attractions and sightseeing activities to work up an appetite, visitors to New York rightly enjoy the greatest assortment of authentic cuisines available in any city on earth. Famous for cheesecake, Italian fare, and kosher delis, nowadays one may also find Sichaunese dishes cooked by chefs from Chengdu, arepas grilled by natives of Bogata, and barbecued ribs smoked by Southerners. But with the cuisines of the world conveniently at hand, visitors often wonder, what is the real food of New York? In answer to this demand, we are pleased to offer the exclusive half-day Edible Liberty Tour that brings visitors closer to the foods of New York, as provided by nature, than ever before.

Our expert guide takes groups into the wilds of Central Park, the world famous jewel of Manhattan, for an experience that is uniquely healthy, educational, and entertaining. In the unknown pockets of the world’s most renowned city park, tour participants will be shown an extensive range of edible and medicinal wild plants and mushrooms. These are the pure foods of nature, still available in the heart of a global metropolis. Spring, summer, and fall offerings vary but are uniformly impressive in their freshness, unusual flavors, and legendary medicinal qualities. With tastebuds and digestion activated, and ailments eased, visitors return to their urban life recharged, physically and mentally. Because this tour fits into the schedule of most any New York visit, and the knowledge gained is yours to keep, and, most of all, because the fruits of Central Park are free, our Edible Liberty Tour is an unbeatable travel value. That is true freedom!

For those with an advanced sense of adventure wanting a full introduction to the art of East Coast foraging, overnight and multi-day tours may be arranged to fit your travel schedule. These take visitors to Forest Park in Queens, the Huntington State Park of Connecticut, and parts of the Appalachian Trail, a celebrated 3500 km-long hiking trail that touches parts of fourteen states, from Maine to Georgia. Our two and three-day excursions are the ultimate tour for all those New York City visitors with the heart of a nature-lover.
