Show Notes
Robin Henderson joins us to talk about foraging. As he was growing up, he heard family stories about the foraging of previous generations.
Then, as urban growth engulfed the area where he lived, he discovered the many edible plants growing in his own neighbourhood.
Henderson points out that many people think of “subsistence” foraging—foraging to fill the stomach. For him, foraging can be a lot more than subsistence—he’s a big believer in “gastronomic foraging.”
Henderson explains that it’s even possible to forage in winter, while there is snow on the ground.
