Juneberry Foraging!

  • Coralville Community Gardens 900 10th Street Coralville, IA, 52241 United States (map)

The Coralville Community Food Pantry is excited to offer a free foraging event to harvest juneberries, also known as serviceberry, saskatoon, sugarplum in Coralville on Friday, June 7 from 3:00 - 4:30 pm near the Coralville Community Garden and the Coralville Water Facility, Parks, and Transit (900 10th Street).

Please bring basket/bucket/container/cup/bag to hold the berry if you would like to take some home. Wear a hat and sunscreen, bring a bottle of water. We will have ice cream with Juneberry compote to share at the end of the harvest. Juneberries are excellent in pancakes, muffins, jam, smoothies, salad, and anything else you would like to enhance with a wild component. They also freeze very well to be use in the winter when we miss that dose of summer's goodness.
