I love these stories. Black and white Americans have always forages and grown their own for centuries and it’s cool that we are rediscovering our roots. If you think about it, no matter how we got here, so many of us have had wonderful lives in the US because we do have amazing land in the US to explore! Also it’s so important because everyone has to know how to forage, esp the way the world is going. That said, she could totally wear a hoodie and she’ll be fine.
During ww11 they were encouraging everyone to grow their own food. Idk why they aren’t encouraging us to do that now!
Shes awesome!!
Does this woman own the property she is taking stuff from? And why does she have to mention her race?
Great Story, THEN THEY HAD TO FIND A WAY TO RACEBAIT
They called the cops on her .Mmm
Awesome, Nelson. You make me smile. It’s sad how black people simply can’t enjoy life without that fear factor always, always there. The Karen who harassed the bird watcher. It’s just sad and tiresome.
OK, she's a delight and I want her as a friend. I have a colleague who helps me forage at the local swamp. You have not lived until you've eaten wild garlic and onions!
this brings people closer to nature like our primitive days.🍃 pretty cool. people do this and find magic mushrooms wouldn't be surprised if that's how she started lol . 🌺
No one washed them 🤮🤮🤮
Jacob is WAKING up like wildfire. Love it!!! 👏🏾👸🏽🥰✊🏾🕎🙏🏾
as someone who is a few years into foraging and learning the arts of the woods I LOOOOVE THIS AND HER
I follow her on IG, such a gem
I use to plant seeds but nowiam living in a apt. Can't wait to move to a house

I simply love what she i s doing..wish i can go forging with her!!
Thanks for this. She looks like she eats more than plants!
I love her Instagram! Full of information that I didn’t think I needed but definitely enjoy
I want to try her baby pine one candy. Been on her TikTok for about 2 years.
Im so happy for this woman!! I love her tik toks
Glad she is doing this and is an expert to guide others. Would be a delight to be taught by her !
God Bless Her!
Anything that gets people to appreciate and care about nature is good by me!
Americans know how to do that and everything superbly

Food inflation gas inflation supply chain shortages is all over the world 🌍
Price gouging is going on here and globally
Love love her
Visit Hawaii and forage for lots of fresh fruits!
She’s going to have her own show in the near future!
