Adventures in Foraging: Friday July 17, 1-2 p.m.




WYPR: Midday with Dan Rodricks Podcast show

Summary: Not your average foodie, Bill Heavey likes to lie in wait for hours with his bow and arrow or paddle down the Potomac River in search of elusive schools of fish. In It’s Only Slow Food Until You Try to Eat It: Misadventures of a Suburban Hunter-Gatherer, Heavey tries to get back to nature and relearn what food really is. We will also be joined by Lytton John Musselman and Harold J. Wiggins, co-authors of The Quick Guide to Wild Edible Plants; a field guide that offers recipes and tips for incorporating edible wild plants into an everyday diet.
