Ikaika Bullock so funny you say that, I think the ppl/race that will naturally endure would be the Native American Indian. They still largely live on reservations and still practice how to live off the land and not to rely on "technology ". Or the many tribes that still maintain minimal technology to survive

Great video. Regarding dandelion root: cut them up and put them in cold water for a couple of hours, the bitterness will go away completely and the inulin will stay inside. If boiled the bitterness will go away in 10 minutes but the inulin is soluble in hot water and will leach into the water as well. Putting the cut up roots in cold water is the better method if you want to keep the inulin :) cheers

This was one of the best plant identification videos that made it relevant and I recognized the plants. Also offering what to do with what parts, what the plant offers and the taste too? Loved the garlic mustard. Must have been in every kitchen garden in Victorian days. Victorian gardens etc. Great research, editing. Now finally I could say oh THATS what that is? I could be eating that? Ohh. So great. I'm a woman who lives for expanding my survival knowledge. I was even a boy Scout (co-ed at 13). Just so I could get real camping and other training. Now I'm 46 and as much a kid as ever. My son is grown, (after a while it wasn't cool to have adventures with mom). Time to have adventures AGAIN!!! Hack, he and his girl may wanna go! I can show him about these neat plants you taught me!!!!!

This video made me realize I’ve been a forager since I was a child. We’d be out playing get hungry and eat wild grapes, blackberries, crap apples (but just one or be sick) and walnuts….we knew all the spots they grew and today 50 years later I forage mushrooms. It’s reassuring knowing when whatever happens, happens, we can survive.

Great video! I recommend to anyone wanting to expand their knowledge of edible and medicinal wild plants to invest in a pocket journal. This will be a great reference for when your’e out and about learning. Take your time to get familiar with a specific plant, take notes on habitat and characteristics, and draw pictures. Once you become familiar with a plant or tree, even on a spiritual level, identification will never leave you. It will be no different then walking by red peppers or lettuce in a grocery store.

This is a very good introduction to foraging. I have foraged in many parts of Europe and New Guinea as well as Australia where I currently live. I teach basic bushcraft and wilderness survival in South Australia, and have done so in Victoria, the Snowy Mountains, coastal New South Wales and Far North Queensland, which are all very different environments. However, something all of these areas have in common is a generous supply of European weeds. Plus Australia has its own edible wild plants and fungi. Our native nettle, wattle seed and muntries are delicious. And wherever European timber or ornamental trees have been planted one can also find European wild fungi. While some of these such as fly agaric and death cap are a serious hazard, there are others such as the saffron milk cap and many boletes that are very good to eat. With fungi even more than with weeds, correct identification is essential. We also have both European and native morels. Do you know that many of the food plants you mention, such as burdock, dandelion, crab apple, hawthorn, elder and blackberry, can be used to make alcoholic drinks? I brew a good crab apple melomel. And the leaves of fireweed, if partially fermented and then dried in the same manner as ordinary camellia tea, make a tasty and refreshing black tea? Plus a number of edible plants such as Bellis perennis, (the English Daisy or bairnwort,) nettle and dock also have medicinal properties? It is an endlessly fascinating subject.

@@Vladpryde wouldn't work, the salt is in the water (cant remember what its called english is not my first language), you should dig a pit put a cup in the bottom put salt water around the cup and a plastic bag over the whole pit, put a rock on the middle of the bag and wait , the water will evaporate and collect in the cup , add more water to the sad around the cup every time it seems dry and that's it, altho you will need to drink a little bit of salt water to get back minerals because the water you have just made is basically destiled water witch has no minerals , if you just drink it you will feel like you are drunk after a long day in the sun , and if nothing is done you will die, thats all the advice on the subject.

Alfie. Hello there. Delighted to find a forager not in the state's for once. I had no idea primroses or fire-weed are good to eat. Having lived off grid in many parts of the U.K. for months to almost a year twice , I've had much time to amuse myself foraging and learning - especially mushrooms , acorns and pine nuts. You are filling in my gaps of knowledge brilliantly. I used dandylion flowers in honey this year - which is steeping away in the pantry as I type. As a cautionary note to other enthusiasts ; despite repeated attempts over many years , I've NEVER enjoyed dandelion root whether as food or beverage. It is defo an aquired taste that I personally avoid - anyone expecting a nice coffee is in for a "bitter" surprise. I find the flavour sooo pungent it stays with me for hours and overwhelms everything else. The nutritional info is particularly useful. Great job mate. Subscribed. All the best. Adam.

Thank you so much for this video. Very well-prepared and thorough, it could save some people’s lives. If you’ve ever been lost in the woods, you know how welcome it is, to have a video like this. We should all learn how to survive on what nature has provided.

I tried some clover after watching this. I liked how the flower heads tasted uncooked. Cooked was good too. I loved the clover itself cooked in a little oil in a skillet. It was light and crispy and had a nice taste.

Dude, thank you for this. Really opened my eyes to searching for edibles. I've always wanted to start the beginning stages of foraging but lacked the oomf to start. This has definitely helped me greatly.

Another good tip for any wild edible is you can dry any part out (leaves, flowers, roots, Etc), and grind it down to make flour; which can be used to bake bread. You can also make tea with them. Not all will taste great but it's a good way to fill up your stomach faster with a more dense material rather than just trying to fill up on roots and leaves.

Where have you been all my life. I'm adept at shelter, water, and fire, but when it comes to foraging for food I have absolutely no experience. I've tried finding information but they come in the form of books which I struggle to absorb information from, this video is just absolutely perfect. Plus you're UK based, and I can normally only find American stuff which is only half applicable at best. Fucking fantastic video, thank you, I feel like I can start to learn this stuff now.

From a patch of wild dandelions I carefully removed the fluffy seed heads and planted them in a more convenient location, namely, my garden. I've heard the greens are great in salad, and they can be used to make at home some dandelion wine. Yummy.
