REFLECTION QUESTION
Simplicity

What would you like to invest more time in reflecting on?

REFLECTION QUESTION
Nature

People are motivated to forage for many different reasons: as a source for food, a means of income, to connect with nature, to participate in cultural tradition, transmitting specific ecological knowledge, or as a means of stewarding local and native plant populations. What is your chief motivation for foraging?
Juanita Hess 10/15/2019 1:17 PM
I am interested in foraging to reduce my impact on our resources. If it's possible to find food already growing, then I don't have to spend money on food that is packaged, marketed and shipped. Also, I increase my self-reliance.

  Mushrooms and chestnuts are my favorite this time of year. We go hunting as a family activity. It's great fun and delicious too.
