Merci to Behemoth for the tip!

"Miles Irving and Fergus Drennan are professional foragers, spending up to 40 hours a week scrambling through woodland, creeping along hedgerows or picking their way across shingle beaches, gathering an enormous variety of wild food from the English countryside. "

I'm not that keen on a professional forager idea.

To be honest I'm not keen on the people who sell foraged food in their restaurants. If too many people start to do it then the pressure on wildlife may prove too much. Some thinks like nettles are fine, but others I'm not that sure.
