Accidental Forager



Saturday afternoon we were trying to figure out a way to control some bamboo that's threatening to take over a portion of our yard when we decided to try harvesting the shoots and eating them. That was a good call because they were delicious.

First mushrooms, now bamboo shoots and soon to come, wild blackberries that should be ripe before long. I kind of like the whole foraging thing and apparently so do a whole lot of other people.

From KQED's California Report...



If you live in the Bay Area and want to try your hand at urban foraging check out Forage Oakland or if you want to try eating the wild bounty that surrounds us visit Forage SF where you can sign up to get a box of foraged wild food.
