I do a lot of it. It makes me feel more connected to nature, I get to work with my hands and literally eat the fruits of my labor, and it's a great way to supplement your diet and rely less on the grocery store.
Everyone I know says it's gross to eat things that grow in the woods, and I'm weird for knowing so much about whats growing out here, I kinda get it, it's not a normal hobby, but I really enjoy it, and wish I could find more people out there who do it.
Anyone here know about any online communities where I can hang out with other people into foraging?
Pic related, it's a bundle of mustard garlic I found today while at work. I'm a happy man.

I found my first fairy spud ever. Been looking for them in the wild for a year. I only took one to safely Id because it was a small cluster and I didn't wanna hurt the population, but the one I took got snacked on and those fresh flowers were delicious.Glad I finally found some.

I finally got my mortar and pestle, and turned my garlic mustard into pesto. It came out perfect. I can't wait for fall so I can make black walnut butter with the new tools.I found a community online that's also interested in foraging so I'm pretty happy.

Any good foraging books you would recommend, or would that probably be highly regional?

Garlic mustard smells like it tastes delicious but I wouldn't want to make pesto out of it. What else can I do with it? Mince it and put it on steak? What else?

I hang all my weeds around the house on the gate like this for the goats to eat.

I do a lot of foraging and have for many years. I have no idea what the hell you have there though. Every area is unique and it takes a long time to learn all the edible things in any specific area. There is a bit of crossover, but even the same plant can look different 50 miles away.

How can you be so confident what you are foraging is exactly what you think it is, and that it won't kill you?t. ausfag (our plants will be vastly different) seeing plants in the nature overwhelms me a lot because there are sooooo many varieties

I'm amazed that my thread is still up because I took a pretty long break.I made some amazing red and white clover tea a week ago and it's been carrying me while I wait for the local chicory roots to fatten up before I make unlimited coffee from them.

is this the foraging thread
i am blessed to live in a place where there are a lot of edible plants but there is also a lot of hantavirus here
is eating wild things without washing them safe or are the libtards right?

I used to forage a lot back in Washington, but I've been less enthusiastic about it in the Sonora desert. Besides a few cacti fruits here and there. Most of the edibles here are legumes that have to be soaked and ground in to flour; which I have no interest in. I did used a skinned prickly pear pad to treat severe sunburn in the bush recently.

I tried Queen Anne's Lace tea for the first time. I found a nice little field of it. It tasted pretty good, kind of like a cinnamon carrot cake. I'm definitely going to start going for it more often.
