REFLECTION QUESTIONNature Forage for My FoodAmongst the motivations for foraging are: a source of food; means of income; connecting with nature; cultural tradition; or transmitting "local ecological knowledge, and a means for stewarding local and native plant populations" (McLain et al. 2012, 13). Which of these would be your chief motivation and why?
Adrien Mills 10/03/2018 11:26 AMBecoming a steward of the local and native plant populations is the chief one of these listed reasons. However, I think my chief motivation would be a desire to be more self-sufficient (and also to maybe expand my diet and explore new areas.)
