It’s not only enjoyable but truly empowering to go out into your own backyard or to anyplace in the wild and gather your own food.  In this course, we’ll cover far more than we could in a traditional half-day plant learning excursion. We’ll travel around together to all sorts of environments. We’ll also get to see the plants at different stages of growth and in different seasons. The best part, you can re-watch the lessons as many times as you like so you can really learn the plants and build your confidence. This will truly accelerate your learning. Join me as me venture out to meet the wild edibles.
