I eat roughly 450g of fruit & veg a day, and omg am I glad we have supermarkets!
Just imagining the STRESS of trying to track down that amount of greens in the wild of a city every day, whilst being mindful of the plant itself, the health of the wider ecosystem & also avoiding a fine 😛
I definitely subscribe to the idea that foraging is more for a nature connection, and personally I think I only wish to do it as ‘a little treat’ – like an occasional ‘fancy’ tea, or to infuse into an oil.
Whilst it would be incredible to be able to forage that much, I think its far more practical to take inspiration from what’s around you and then intentionally grow it in your own garden if you really wish to sustain yourself on it.
