A short podcast episode about how to not poison yourself through foraging - the link to the video version of this podcast is available below.Being wary of foraging is fairly sensible as there is a real risk of poisoning yourself or others if you don't know what you are eating. Identification guides are brilliant to help you learn how to read the packaging of plants, trees and mushrooms and is the first step to take when moving into identification of species that you don't know.Pairing a solid identification with knowledge from a foraging guide or another reliable source is the next step and will give you more detailed information about the edibility of what you have found.Remember - no taste sensation is worth the risk of death if you aren't really sure!Links-The video version - https://youtu.be/NTdqTr4I7Ag- Wild Food People on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook - @wildfoodpeople- Support the Wild Food People podcast on Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/wildfoodpeople- About Wild Food People - https://wildfoodpeople.co.uk/about/- Attend a course with Wild Food People - https://wildfoodpeople.co.uk/courses- Get in touch with us - https://wildfoodpeople.co.uk/contact-us/- Richard on Instagram and Twitter - @richprideaux- Amy on Instagram and Twitter - @agreenoutdoors
