  Because I do a lot of editing, I can’t turn my editing eye off when reading anything any more. Thought you’d like to correct the typo on the spelling of Idaho.

  I am looking for a local expert in Mississauga Ontario Canada. I know a little bit of foraging. I would like to know even more. All I can find locally are dumpster foragers. I like weed.

  Thanks

  Hi Deane,

  I have been an avid reader for several months now and may I just say I’ve probably learned more from you than from most of my schooling years combined (probably more my fault and the system’s than the teachers). I just wanted to ask and be sure that these teachers don’t mind being contacted at random. I could probably talk somebody’s head off about plants and foraging especially in my native area and so I just wanted to double check they wouldn’t mind an earful of questions. Thank you and may I also take this chance to thank you personally for this incredible knowledge. I am 23 and I consider this some of the most valuable information on this planet. It is a shame it is uncommon but thanks to you and your peers perhaps more and more people can share and use what you have provided.
  Elliott

    I have personally contacted every one of these teachers. They have approved of them being listed and it is they who have given men contact information. I think there is only one that does not want direct contact and that is why I am listed as the contact for that person.

  Hello, I do not know anything. My expertise starts and ends at mulberries lol. However, I really love the subject and I would like to learn more. I am really interesting in fermenting and gardening, but I would like to learn about foraging as well. I can never find any morals when I go hunting. :/ I live in Northern Illinois. I might try to contact the expert listed in Naperville if I have trouble with the reading. Its always best to learn first eyed and second hand! Thanks for the site.

  Hi Deane,

  I just discovered your website and I love it. I am an amateur forager in Vancouver, BC Canada. I’m familiar with all the coastal berries and many plants but I’d love to learn more. Can you recommend anyone here?

  Thanks,
  Alyssa

  Hello!

  Thank you for all the information and education you provide us with!

  Is there anyone who could teach in (northern preferably 🙂 ) Greece??

  Also with a teacher you get the opportunity to have your identification skills honed and your judgment sharpened. That builds confidence.

  I am seeing someone as a self-proclaimed expert named Dan Potts in Utah, but I’m not in contact with him yet.

  Hello Deane,
  can you please recommend an instructor in Greece? Just like Carol I also moved to Greece not to long ago. Mainland Greece or any of the bigger islands would be fine. Thanks.

  Sometimes they send me a bio, or others do, or I know them. My mail problem is wordpress page wouldn’t accept more entries.
