Description
A Forager’s Life is about a life spent in nature and in the classroom – from the thousands of wild edible forays with adults and young people, to the legendary Euell Gibbons and the first Earth Day, to the rise of today’s great foraging wave, a wave that is bringing city folks and country folks together in search of that most basic of life’s pleasures: wild foods. Author Mike Krebill is one of America’s most acclaimed foragers and wild food educators, a living encyclopedia of all things wild and edible. Mike is also the author of the St. Lynn’s Press title The Scout’s Guide to Wild Edibles.
A Forager’s Life is about waking up to the natural world, with the nurturing help of great mentors along the way. At its heart, it’s the story of a natural-born teacher who never stopped being a curious little boy, and who knows how to appeal to the curious kid in all of us. That’s what earned him multiple awards during his long career as a middle-school science teacher, environmental educator and naturalist.
Are there recipes? Yes, lots of them, all kid-tested and kid-approved. You might like to try the Queen Anne’s Lace pancakes, for starters.
