    This was life-changing. The concept of a forager's farm is exactly what I was looking for and didn't even realize it. Not only is it the exact relationship I'd like to have with my land (purchasing in spring), but it's also the exact relationship I want to have with my table (retired chef). I've never liked the idea of tending a garden of plants that aren't supposed to grow where they're planted while stuffed into imported soil. So much work and so taxing on the environment. A forager's garden would be beneficial to all and the work it requires isn't wasted. This is how true connection should look. Thank you, Les.

    Really lovely to see everyone's comments here - thank you! I'm not a big social media user, so it was a warm surprise today to find how the show has impacted some of you and that you've found parts of it inspiring and useful. The nettles and miner's lettuce are popping up here on the West Coast (sorry Paul, I know you have snow in Calgary!) and I can feel spring starting to burst in the orchard cherry buds. A key teaching for me has always been to tend the land as you are foraging. So if you have a favourite patch of nettles it's not too late to dig some up and move this important food/medicine down the trail to a new location to thrive. If you're somewhere colder where plants are firmly dormant, it's a great time to prune some willow or elderberries, and push those straight 30-40 CM (11-15 inches) cuttings into a new location to root. Happy foraging and tending!

    This is exactly the kind of thing i picture someone like you doing as you start to enter your early twilight years, and an added bonus is you're technically following the evolution of humanity by transitioning from hunter/gatherer to agriculture/harvest, you're truely the modern neolithic man, exactly how this planet designed us to be.

    One of the most impactful people In my life from teaching basic skills I use every time I’m camping with the family to things I’ve used when I’ve found myself stranded.

Your a legend to me and so many other young men my age and so many other people. It’s a blessing your still making content, I know a lot like me are Les stroud fans forever, thank you les

    It would be great if television have shows like this. Survival cooking show, just imagine, the contestants need to hunt/forage the ingredients for the cooking. I'll pay good money to see that. Amazing work Les! God speed.

    Salmon berries are my absolute favourite but they have such a short season. The bushes also have a fairly small yield of berries so if someone gets to them first there is often nothing left.

    It's always nice when you feature wild game as well as wild edible plants in an episode of Wild Harvest. When done properly, hunting is beneficial to the environment and in some areas is necessary to maintain the ecosystem. However, very few public figures who consider themselves to be environmentalists talk about the benefits of hunting in a wildlife management program. All too often, these so-called environmentalists demonize hunters and advocate for severe restrictions or outright bans on hunting, while being incapable of giving a solution to issues of overpopulation and invasive species. I once heard a public speaker from some environmental activists group answer a question about the problem of feral hogs, an invasive species that causes millions in agricultural damages in several southern states, by saying that they never should have been brought here in the first place. Are they suggesting we go back in time and arrest Captain Cook?

    • @metchosinfarm
      @metchosinfarm Рік тому

      Hi Nathan. I grew up in the bush, and was taught that you never hunt the largest or smallest animal/fish. Leave these to reproduce or grow up more. People out on the land and looking after it while harvesting are so critical to ecosystem (and human!) health.

    • @internetcatfish
      @internetcatfish 3 місяці тому

      @@metchosinfarm In general, that's a good practice. With some species however, you don't want to follow that and it can actually be illegal to do so. For instance, with wild turkeys in Arkansas, you are only allowed to kill the ones that are bigger and older, typically the ones that are close to the end of their natural lifespan. There are various species of fish that have slot limits, which prevent you from legally keeping any that aren't within a specific size range, which typically includes only larger specimens. It's usually better to take it on a case-by-case basis that factors in the species in question and the particulars surrounding that area in that moment. At certain times of the year, some fish species have a really low chance of recovering if you release them, so it's usually better to only catch a few and keep them rather than catching and releasing a ton of them just for a significant portion of them to die anyway. It's good to be selective, but you can't always be selective for the same thing.

    Words to live by, in city life with marketing everywhere, and in foraging when nature seldom likes to be consumed by not a target audience, so to speak. Know what you want, get if you can, and be sure you got what you really wanted.

    Ive been trying to figure out where this episode takes place but NO WHERE is this information revealed. I searched the farm name. I searched the owners name, i fucking READ the entire transcript to the episode. The best information I got was "an island off the west coast." Ok? Is this like some secret facility? Very mysterious and kind of annoying as a person with OCD
