Grab your baskets and sense of adventure — we’re heading into the wild! 🌿🍄

In this episode of The Practical Permaculture Podcast, Alysse chats with the delightful Chanterelle — professional forager, educator, and all-around wild food wizard. Together, they dive deep (sometimes literally!) into the art of foraging: from munchable mushrooms to backyard "weeds" that are anything but weeds.

Expect stories about how Chanterelle got into foraging, the cultural roots of wild food traditions, and why dandelions and plantains might just be your new favorite snacks. They also unpack common myths (no, not all mushrooms are out to get you), essential safety tips, and how foraging can reconnect us with community, land, and ourselves.

You’ll learn:

  • How to ID beginner-friendly wild edibles 🌼

  • Why “weeds” might be the most underrated superfoods

  • Tools and tips for safe, sustainable foraging 🧺

  • The joy of finding dinner growing in your backyard

  • How foraging workshops are keeping ancient wisdom alive

Whether you're a total newbie or a seasoned plant nerd, this episode will leave you itching to hit the trail — or at least your backyard — in search of your next wild treat.

We live, work, and dream on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander lands. We acknowledge them as holding deep ecological knowledge and their ability to live sustainably in harmony with the land. They and other ancient cultures are roots of permaculture—working with nature, fostering resilience, and ensuring balance for future generations.
