Hi ,
If you were lost in the backcountry, trapped on an island or, of course, during a zombie apocalypse, could you feed yourself in the wild? Take our foraging survival quiz and get a free survival video series on the best wild foods that will keep you going in a wilderness emergency. Right now, for example, edible wild mushrooms like porcini and chicken of the woods are sprouting up around BC (pst our mushroom foraging field trips are starting up soon). I'll point out the top 3 foods that I would use in a pinch on the coast to keep alive in an emergency. I'd love to hear if you
pass the short survival quiz if you already think you could make it on your own...
