In this course we offer:
1- A guide for you to identify a multitude of wild fruits and plants.
The fields and forests hide jewels of flavor and nutrition:
acorns, rose hips, blackberries, strawberries..., as well as medicinal
plants. Gathering wild foods has great advantages: they are foods that
are already there, we do not have to cultivate them; they are plants
with very deep roots, rich in minerals and contain powerful adaptogens
that help them survive the environment and can be used as medicine. Get
to know these foods and explore the ancestral practice of gathering
plants and fruits from the field, which will bring you independence and
satisfaction.
