The Magic Of Wild Foraging (Anyone Can Do It!)
About this episode
Tama Wong shares her journey of discovering the culinary potential of wild foraging and encourages others to embrace it.
Tama Wong didn't feel like a great gardener—until she discovered that the weeds she was battling were delicacies from across the world. Now, she forages (and farms like a forager!) for fine dining restaurants, and she encourages others to enjoy wild flavor by foraging, too.
