Join Melanie Sawyer, a historical forager in Essex, NY, as she shows us the bountiful number of edible plants and mushrooms that grow in the Adirondacks, a region notorious for its difficult climate. Explore the ways in which we can learn from the traditional food practices of the people indigenous to this land, and how to harvest edible and medicinal plants in a way that is ethical and respectful.
