John Wright - The Forager's Calendar - September 2020

September 2020 - John Wright - The Forager's Calendar

Our first live interview via Zoom got off to a great start, when author John Wright mistimed his nap, and didn't join us until 37 minutes in!

This provided plenty time for the community to bond over tickling trout and recipes for rosehips. And to cast envious eyes over the location of one lucky participant joining us from a campfire at the side of Loch Lochy, winning himself 4 months of Adventurous Ink subscription for his trouble.

Our conversation with John starts at 37 mins in and still covered plenty ground, including:

• The best way to get Flying Ants in the frying pan
• Why foraging shouldn't be thought of as a fad
• The safest place to forage mushrooms (away from the woods)
• How to cook nettle pasta
• And how foraging helps us connect with our time & place
