Foraging wild food is my passion! To be able to find food and medicine almost every day is an old skill that has been forgotten by many. It is my job to ignite that spark in YOU to get out there and forage too. I teach homesteaders and preppers how to identify wild plants and mushrooms to use for food and medicine.

In October, I have the Mastering the Wild class. This is one of my most favorite classes to share with you! We will go over 20+ Wild Plants/Trees/Fruits/Nuts that can be foraged to make edible and medicinal recipes from. Not only that but I will show you how to make it a business to sell what you forage. Of course, this is only for the plants not the mushrooms as that falls under the certification program with Mushroom Mountain. Not everyone that takes this course plans on selling wild foods. MANY just want to learn in a more in depth class like this with hands on activities. YOU will receive a certificate of completion after the weekend, in case you want to pursue a business. More information can be found below, just click the button!
Forager's Academy is OPEN!!Come check out the new membership space! We meet weekly on Monday nights on Zoom for LIVE learning! $27/month. Lastly, some of you already have heard, I am baking breads again! I bake once a week by order and the orders MUST be done through the following App. Please when ordering choose to pay by credit card or cash app. It makes it easier for me.
