Feed your family, have fun, enjoy quality time, get some exercise, and unleash your creativity, all with one simple activity - foraging!Do you ever look at a plant, nuts, or fruit you find out in the wild and wonder if it is safe to eat?

Would you like to do anything other than trawl the mall once again this weekend?

Do the Rocky Mountains and the vast beauty of America's nature call to you?

Maybe it's time to learn a new skill - one that is not only interesting and useful but also immensely satisfying. Learn how to explore, identify, and gather safely and ethically.

The westward mountain range has a truly diverse set of options and stunningly magnificent natural areas for you to explore, from forest glades and dells to marshes, riverlands, and deserts. Get familiar with a few of the most commonly found plants, roots, fruits, and nuts to be found is all you need for a safe and satisfying foraging experience.

  • How to forage safely and make sure you harvest the right plant, every time
  • What the experts do to test for food safety and edibility
  • The most sustainable way to forage in the wild, so that you leave nature as you found it
  • What areas you are legally allowed to forage in, and where you may need to apply for a forager's permit
  • What season to forage in, for certain types of edibles
  • The yummiest wild roots, nuts, seeds, fruits, berries, and mushrooms that you can typically find in this part of the world
  • Some everyday (and some less familiar) medicinal herbs, what they can be used for, and how to transform them into health-giving herbal teas, tinctures, and salves
  • How to store and preserve your wild harvest to enjoy later at your leisure
  • The most delicious, easy-to-follow recipes and tasty treats to make from the bounty you bring back from your nature walks
