Vincent Perry+FollowWild Foraging: Fun or Fiasco?Ever thought about picking wild berries or mushrooms for your next meal? Turns out, more city folks are heading to the countryside to forage, but some are crossing into private farms and causing headaches for local farmers. Besides the risk of a trespassing ticket, over-harvesting can mess up local ecosystems and wipe out native plants. If youโre tempted to forage, do your homework: know the rules, ask permission, and donโt take more than you need. Mother Nature (and the farmers) will thank you! #Business #Industry #ForagingTips11Share
lolson+FollowAlmost poisoned myself foraging last week ๐ Fellow hunters, reality check time... Was on a 3-day hunt, ran low on food by day 2. Went to grab some berries for emergency rations and almost picked the wrong ones - waxy leaves saved me from a toxic mistake. Made me realize my foraging safety knowledge got rusty. ๐ Golden rule: If you can't 100% ID it, don't eat it. Those "similar looking" mushrooms? They're not worth the ER visit when you're miles from help. ๐ฟ Red flags: Milky sap, umbrella flowers, waxy leaves = nope. Your gut feeling is usually right. ๐ญ Location matters: Stay away from roadsides and industrial areas. Plants are like sponges for all that nasty stuff. Anyone else combining summer scouting with foraging? #hunting #foragingtips #huntingseasonprep #wildedibles125104Share
