Forage for My Food
People are motivated to forage for many different reasons: as a source for food, a means of income, to connect with nature, to participate in cultural tradition, transmitting specific ecological knowledge, or as a means of stewarding local and native plant populations are just a few examples. What is your chief motivation for foraging?
I would prefer to source my food as locally as possible, when pesticides are not a concern. Our ground is fertile for mushrooms and I wanted to learn if any of them could be eaten. I also love tree nuts and fruit and am always happy to pick them from familiar sources.
