Learn To Forage Local Edibles

Nature is full of good food, free of chemicals—if you know where to look. 

Learning to forage can turn a walk in the woods into a free grocery trip. Identify local edible plants, berries, nuts, and mushrooms (carefully). 

Use a field guide or take a class from an expert to make sure you don't accidentally pick poisonous plants.
