Supermarkets may spring up like weeds in major cities but a group of people in Amsterdam wants us to find our food in more natural surroundings.The Stedelijk Museum has teamed up with some local scavengers to organise tours aimed at teaching people how to dig for their dinner.

The initiative is part of a five-month project that pairs artists with nature lovers in Amsterdam. Its goal is to get people thinking about their immediate environment and the possibilities it offers for hunting edible species.
Organiser Wietske Maas told Radio Netherlands: “I was asked to do a series of activities around urban food and based on my research practise called ‘urbanibalism’.
