Foraging

Foraging allows people to access an abundance of nutritious foods growing all around us in nature, if we learn to identify them properly. By discovering edible plants, mushrooms, nuts and berries in forests, fields and wetlands, foragers can supplement their diets with fresh, seasonal ingredients. It is a skill that gets you outdoors exploring all that our environment has to offer. Foraging can also help promote biodiversity and teach us about our connections to the natural world.
