Found some in the woods yesterday and looked them up. Apparently the fruit is very tasty, resembling Starburst. Have you tried it?...

I tried a tiny taste and it was pretty neutral, not “grassy” at all. Might work well in a salad....

Got some spruce tips, but they basically have no flavor. Am I picking at the wrong time? Or maybe it’s just a bland tree?

They smell amazing...

At least I’m pretty sure that’s what it is. It has a nice garlic taste. I chopped it and put in some oil, salt and pepper for a nice little spread.

Pretty psyched for garlic mustard and dandelion season here soon....

Hello there foragers and gatherers!...

Picked along the North Coast of California. Winter chanterelles, black trumpets, hedgehog mushrooms, and a few golden chanterelles which are not visible I don’t think....

Sorry this isn’t actually foraging per se, but the only kind of people who’d grow these are probably foragers anyway. I’ve been growing them for a couple years, but this is the first year I had enough to bother trying to eat them! From two plants we got about 1/2 a cup....

Sadly, there are only a few small areas of ancient forest left in my area, but they are so diverse and abundant. They’re always a treat to explore....

Agaricus arvensis or campestris. I can never tell horse and field mushrooms apart, but no yellow staining and a pleasant mushroom and mild anise smell. I found several rings. Unfortunately, the maggots beat me to most of them. Also found a fair few meadow puffballs (Lycoperdon pratense) that had unfortunately just started to...

My town have a plantation of Juglans nigra. These nut trees don’t grow usually in France yet when I decided to have a taste of them, I thought I would handle it like another nut. But they are different....

Anyone else finding wild grapes?

Does anyone else primarily find muscadine by smell? I can easily notice it from 20 yards away.

Found me some Wood Hedgehog mushroom today....

This was an unusual tree I noticed in my neighborhood and it took me some time to identify. But when I did I was delighted to learn it is quite edible....

I thought it could be a good idea to gather valuable resources for people to use whilst foraging! Feel free to comment other suggestions and I’ll expand the list periodically. For now the list is minimal and general, but if/when it expands i might categorize them based on region or field of interest. Give us your best...

Hi folks. I forage for plants. I know those pretty well. Whn I don’t, I use an app caled PlantNet (definitely recommend it) is there something similar I can use where you take a picture and verify?...

Hello, I created this community has the previous one disappeared out of thin air(?). I have not ran a community before, but I assume it should be all good as most people looking for this type of community are rather down to earth. badumn tsss....
