Foraging is one of the best ways to become self-reliant and get rich source of nutritious food... for free!

However, to forage responsibly, you must be aware of your environment and the legal situation of the region.

The Great Lakes region is one of the more popular sites for foraging, but not every plant you find can be consumed, and some plants may be endangered or at-risk, and therefore shouldn't be harvested.

About the Author

Born in the United States, Samantha Deere lived in the state of California, New York, and Vermont. In the States, she ran her herbal practice for several years, alongside being a yoga teacher. At this time, she developed her forager skills and learned a lot about natural traditional medicine from a Shaman friend. Later, following her interest in yoga practices, she lived in India for several years. This is the place where she explored local healing traditions and practices first-hand and learned from Ayurveda healers. This nurtured her interest in herbalism and cultural approaches to health and well-being even more. Today, Samantha is now working as an Herbalist practitioner, educator, and writer for a medical journal and online publishers. She specialized in healing herbs and spices, their history, and their various use in cultures worldwide. She thinks about living again partially in India.
