About Me

Join me on my wildcrafting adventure as I dip my toes into the sometimes intimidating world of foraging and reconnect with nature. My little blog shares my journey as I learn to identify and prepare wild foods. This blog is the place for you if you find the usual resources overwhelming and inaccessible to the beginner.

My "rules" for learning:

  1. Learn one plant at a time.

  2. Grow new plants in my own yard to understand all phases of the lifecycle.

  3. Learn any toxic look likes before harvesting in the wild.
