The Forager Home Page

by Wes Stone

Some of the foods you can find in the wilds:

MUSHROOMS: The fruiting bodies of fungi are fascinating to look at; certain species are delicious.  Of course, you need to be able to identify your mushrooms before eating them!

PLANTS:  Many native and introduced plants have edible parts.  Being able to enjoy a "trail nibble" adds to the outdoor experience.

FISH:  Fishing may be challenging or relaxing. There are types of fish, water, and equipment for anglers of all temperaments.

Note: I've let this page lapse for many years. As of 12/11/06, I'm starting an update. I can't promise that it will be as useful as it was ten years ago, but I don't want to let it die. -ws
