Wild Foods & Foraging

There’s a whole world of food growing wild around us—you just need to know what to look for.

Our Wild Foods & Foraging library will help you learn how to safely identify, harvest, prepare, and enjoy common edible plants found in fields, forests, backyards, and other wild spaces. Explore wild greens, edible flowers, fruits and berries, nuts and seeds, roots and tubers, wild teas and beverages, and traditional ways to preserve your harvest.

Along the way, you’ll learn about important lookalikes, the best times to harvest, which parts of each plant are edible, sustainable foraging practices, and simple ways to bring wild foods into your kitchen.

Whether you’re curious about the dandelions growing in your yard or ready to carry a basket into the woods, this is your place to begin reconnecting with the edible plants growing all around you.
