Forager's Harvest Website
http://www.foragersharvest.com
Our mission is to promote foraging – the
pastime of responsibly harvesting and utilizing wild food - by providing
knowledge. We do this through articles, publications, classes, workshops,
presentations, and consulting. At Forager’s Harvest we look at wild food from
many angles of interest: health and nutrition, gourmet cooking, wilderness
survival, thrift, self-reliance.
