This week on A Taste of the Past Linda speaks to master forager Connie Green. Recommended by Martha Stewart Living and co-author of “The Wild Table: Seasonal Foraged Food and Recipes”, Connie knows a thing or two about foraging. Learn how Connie is spreading the word about why foraging is not the scary undertaking some think it is. Learn why chanterelles are simultaneously universally sought and yet, in a way, not hard to find. Also learn about TheWildTable.net, your source for mycological and foraging info on the internet. This episode was sponsored by S. Wallace Edwards &amp; Sons.
