Hi Amanda, I'm trying to subscribe to skillshare using the link but it keeps saying "site cannot be reached, check if typo". I think I saw another similar comment here too.

[@lisaferrara8120]

When my grandfather was a young man in Italy, his friends asked him to go with them to forage for mushrooms. He declined. Six of his friends died of poisoning. Your advice is welcome and so important. Thank you for taking the time to present this video.

[@candacelemming858]

I love how intimitly you are informed about foraging, knowing every aspect of the process and not just identification. I also appreciate your determination to provide instruction and share your devout sense of responsibility.

[@lindaschwab8873]

I really appreciate how responsible you are by encouraging people to educate theirselves about how to identify and conserve these resources. It’s one of the reasons I subscribe to your channel. I hope you’re feeling much better now. Take care of yourself and Frank. 🙂

[@tidelinetoalpine]

Thank you. It’s important so everyone can enjoy foraging for years to come.

[@RoxyEwe]

Thank you for sharing about foraging! Hope this video is the first of many! Good health to you and Frank!!💜💚

[@ramblynrocketeer]

[@tidelinetoalpine]

Thank you ☺️

[@karenlevine8302]

So glad you're back! My mom was very good at find morels. I would walk by them and she would see them. So fun. Watching you and your mom brings back great memories. Thanks.

[@davehenderson64]

Good to see you back at it Amanda. You and Frank are awesome. Hope you feel tip top soon, but try not to over do anything. Take your time, we`ll all still be here.

[@sarawarrener2193]

The drone will be a game changer. If we thought your videography was amazing before watch out you will be taking your videos to a whole new level. Can’t wait. It’s going to be fabulous ❤

Everyone should always take time to invest them themselves. I think Skill share is something that I may look into. I have heard that we must constantly invest in ourselves.

[@monicahileman1644]

Wow, imagine if there were more Amanda's in this world. How awesome our world would be. Thank you for taking the time to give us some of your foraging knowledge . One of my favorite videos.

[@terrilikens4975]

I'm so glad you discussed sustainability in foraging. The concern is real.

[@RenayVildhjarta]

One of your BEST VIDEOS...Yet😋 Looking forward to the Drone addition 💯 Thanks for the Patreon sneak peek ❣✌🏽🙏

[@kennethbailey9853]

You and Frank bring Joy

[@marianfrances4959]

Awesome to see you again! Great foraging with your mom. I garden and consider it a workout, for sure. Awesome foraging talk, thank you!! YAY on the drone!!!!!! Happy summer everyone.👍😎🇨🇦🌲💜🐾💘

[@spellbound021]

Thanks for keeping it real, Amanda! No fancy clothes required to forage! Love your thinking on the basket and leash - everything must have multiple uses when living in a small space!

[@shanniwelsh133]

Thank you for this information. Learning to forage feels so overwhelming but I love your practical (and ethical) approach.

[@pagewhite61]

It’s so great that you got a drone, how fun! I was wondering how you got that shot of Truck on the bridge. Thanks for the great foraging information.

[@karlawithakranaway6125]

So happy to see y'all having fun. I'd love to pick and eat those delicious mushrooms. Wonderful to watch.

[@rakshakaur1985]

Good morning Amanda, hope you are feeling much better ❤️ Thank you for sharing!! Sending you and Frank all kinds of good energy 🙏🏽🌻

[@jenniferfleury8491]

There are many reasons I’m a big fan of yours. Your dedication to responsibility (in so many facets not just foraging) and the fact that you speak out about it is one of my top reasons to love you.

[@406dreamin8]

Great video! I really enjoy your content. Thanks for sharing your time with us! I look forward to seeing you every week with something new and exciting to share!😀❤💚💛🧡😀

[@evapierce1090]

Just loved this video so much. You look so good. Beautiful, healthy and happy. Thank you for sharing all you know about foraging. You talked about aspects I've haven't thought of, and are so important. Thank you again so much.

[@wcoastlaurie-7-2]

Ack! Been up in the back country for a few weeks, the only downside of having this freedom is missing my fav you tubers videos!

[@sheilaren123]

I too loved picking Mushrooms and you are right always know what your picking because eating the wrong mushrooms or harvesting any wild foods. Yes your right about saving some for the animals too. I only take enough for eating. Thank you for sharing your very good info. Have a good Sunday. Also your new drone is cool. The drone pictures are so clear and yes first know how to used the camera so you get clear photos. I loved the my Drone.

[@sharonoldham4374]

Congratulations on getting a drone ! This will be so much fun. Thank you for book recommendations. Have a good week stay safe and take care of yourself.

[@Christina0623]

Great info & so glad to see you're feeling better! Love to Frank 🐾🚐🏞

[@LowLightMike]

6:23 mark: Good Words on ignoring appearances or comparisons, and on just doing it. I like these nuggets of wisdom that are applicable to a variety of situations.

[@tidelinetoalpine]

Thanks Mike 😊

[@melanieburnell5978]

During WW2 in Great Britain, they collected rose hips and turned them into preserves to supplement vitamin C, which they couldn't get from imported fruit.

[@shooterbean6051]

Glad you are feeling better. Give Frank I big hug for me. 💚💚💚

[@tamibrink8569]

Thank you Amanda for all you do. Your energy revs me up. Foraging is a blast. My brother taught me and bookshelf of books. Love you and Frank❣️

[@purplegiraffe8194]

i loved this!!! Keep the videos coming. I am also glad you are feeling better.

[@goodandgreen]

its so special to get to witness your growth and now a drone! how fun! i wish i wasn't trapped in a city and had places to forage that were not covered in exhaust dust. keep bringing us along ! cant wait for the truck updates. you're so lucky to have decent parents, im disabled and did not win the family lottery- no mechanic area, no homeowners, no yards to forage or work in. maybe next lifetime. sending yall love.

[@enhancedsimplicity9708]

Love ❤️ your channel 👍🏾 SMART SMART SMART SMART SMART!!! #FORAGING & Identifiying life saving edibles... hope you've built a home/van library for growing in knowledge & skills

[@beth.icanfly3983]

I live in morel country in the Appalachians of Ohio/WV. I've never found any in the wild and now I know why. They're so much smaller than I realized!

[@Khushee01]

So super jealous of all your morels! I am yet to find them - here by us morel spots are very few and their spots very much held secret. We do find lots of boletes, chicken of the woods, pine rings and termitomyces when we are lucky, though. Can't wait to see what you do with your drone!

[@raveninavaniam9438]

This is so fantastic !! You really have a lot of information to offer people 🍀⭐🦋 I Love your beautiful Soul ⭐👍

[@sarahjacobs1134]

I am so glad to see you back. Love love the foraging information especially the perspective of how to use tools and resources. I have also been trying to find the video where you make your own flat bread. Any hints?

[@Saffirance]

foraging feels like a treasure hunt with fun surprises.

[@tidelinetoalpine]

Haha yes!!! That’s why I also love rock hounding and fossil hunting.

[@sophialewis5642]

Love the drone shots with the dog

[@Shannon5909]

YOU HAVE A DRONE!!!!!! WOOOOOHOOOOO!!! Can't wait to see all the amazing content you're going to get!! And..on a completely different topic...you look and sound like you're feeling better! Enjoy those morels darlin...cheers💜

[@photofrog]

Hats off to you - it really is a talent. I joined a foraging club, read some books, spent hours going to the "right" places and came home with 1 morel. >_< But I had a lot of fun and a healthy appreciation for those who can find them. They are soooo delicious. I'm not giving up.

[@simplybeingme]

I love your chair!!!!! And excited for your drone!!

[@lorid2092]

I'm a botanist and Nature Lover, and I think you're spot on on everything you said. I love David Aurora's book! I had a similar experience to yours with what I thought were truffles, but it was out the other end😂 Good thing I cooked them or who knows what might have resulted! I love coral and cauliflower mushrooms. Another good guideline is to always leave some plants/fruiting bodies to keep the stand going in the future. I take only a little here and there. You are awesome, thanks Amanda!💚🌄🌠

[@livingsimplytosimplylive6817]

Oh my gosh you have a drone you should be able to get some awesome shots on your travels. The next statement is me being very facetious. Just remember don’t drone on and on and on and on lol congratulations on the purchase

[@tidelinetoalpine]

😝

[@susanscovill6817]

Excellent excellent vlog. Great instruction, great advise and great reference material referral. I myself am looking for a good sustainable area for Turkey tail and all you mentioned. I love mushrooms cooked or raw. We have so many edible plants here in BC that are so healthy. With the ever rising cost of food, foraging is becoming a viable supplementation option. I look forward to more of your ‘classes’. Cheers from Vancouver eh!

[@walteranson9551]

We are such big fans we just received just received our Frank magnet with his Paul print signature.

[@TrueBeliever6491]

It would be really awesome if you published a book with your amazing photography skills on plants, mushrooms, etc.

[@theoldgoat4525]

I received my magnet today, thanks so much! It’s weird how much your handwriting looks like mine. Hope you’re recuperating quickly! James

[@3generations393]

I just love mushrooms but more important-I truly hope you are feeling better. Congratulations on your new "eye in the sky" 👍🙏✌

[@shelleybayless8968]

I thought about it, but was afraid I might poison myself or start having hallucinations! PLEASE teach us!

[@cilantro3992]

😂

[@lagreengavanlife]

Glad to see you are feeling better. I enjoyed watching this. Oh and the new addition is AWESOME!

[@angelshoemaker9503]

Morel mushrooms in the spring, great. In Illinois in the fall morel look-a-like, please do not eat or even cook. The fumes can make you very uncomfortable. Eating just a bite and one half bite made me very sick. My husband found them, cooked them, got an upset stomach, insisted I should enjoy them even if he felt horrid. I tried and was vomiting most of the night.

[@kenclanton3395]

Omg 20000 subscribers Congratulations Amanda and Frank

[@Carol-bk1ro]

So glad you seem to be recovering well. Much love, health and peace!

[@teagoldleaf4137]

It's so good to see you! I've thought of you often since your last video, praying for your speedy recovery. 🙏 Thank you for the info you've shared in this video,I'm going to pick up some of the books you suggested. The world needs more people as thoughtful and conscientious as you.

[@Camille_Lee_Æon]

I admire the fact you brought up how important it is to be respectful of environment and what lives in it. I am going to get that book. I walk in the woods outback and see many different mushrooms. I love mushrooms. Yet, don't know the poisonous ones.

[@bélalugrisi]

My goodness! What a great haul of Morels!! Hope you and your Mom enjoyed them. Best to you!

[@donnamount151]

U should write a book on shrooming and foraging Mand...😁😁😁

[@sandybuzz22]

I was so excited to see you bring your new drone out from behind that curtain! You have amazing videography skills, and your channel is such a pleasure to watch because of the ways you record and edit your videos! I look forward to seeing what more you'll create using a drone (a side note: I usually despise drones for how intrusive they feel when they whirl by, but in your creative hands, I'm excited to see what happens!)

[@LaNette1]

Hey Amanda that was a great video always look forward to seeing you and Frank you guys always make my day it is so beautiful at your mom and dad‘s amazing I’m so happy for you that you got a drone that is awesome thanks for taking us along have fun and be safe 🇺🇸♥️🙂👍🌍☮️🐾🚐🇨🇦

[@havefaithtarot]

Yay! A drone. Be careful. Mine went swimming on its own after about 3 months. Luckily it was only a DJI Mavic Mini so less money wasted and I’ve been trying to fix it but so far no luck yet. How fun! I miss mine frequently.

[@abeach5420]

Outstanding share Miss Amanda. Critically important points and tips. SO looking forward to the drone footage. Literally going to be e-p-i-c!! I was thinking though if Mr. Frankee is jealous of your *COFFEE & CELL* then how is he going to endure the drone? haha

[@scorriero1828]

Your teaching skills are absolutely awesome. Thorough, stressing whats important so simply and then repeating those crucial points to plant them firmly in your listeners mind. I suspect you're a natural because you taught yourself and are an ongoing learner. I have so much respect for your honesty and transparency. Keep well, keep going. You are necessary.

[@alineradventureswithsimons79]

Chanterelles are the only thing I've been comfortable foraging. I keep a net bag in my backpack just in case I come across any. I was taught to use the net bag so the spores could drop. Thanks for your wonderful video and congrats on the drone.

[@sheriboberry28]

Amanda~ Thank you so much for all the wonderful information on how to start the wild foraging journey. I am absolutely thrilled to get started. I recently purchased these books as resources: 'Edible Wild Plants - Wild Foods from Dirt to Plate' by: John Kallas, PhD 'The Forager's Harvest- A Guide to Identifying, Harvesting, and Preparing Edible Wild Plants' by: Samuel Thayer 'Peterson Field Guide to Mushrooms of North America' 2nd Edition by: Karl B. McKnight, Joseph R. Rohrer, Kirsten McKnight Ward & Kent H. McKnight And I bought a foraging basket and it also has a strap attached to it. :)

[@markatkins9587]

Oh it is so good to see you out and about !

[@pattinpups9680]

Loved this!❤ I went foraging for more videos about this subject but was disappointed that you don't have a foraging playlist.😢

[@kimhoffman8595]

This was a great video, thank you for sharing. I’d love to learn , going to get the books!!

[@mikeandloria]

I wish I liked mushrooms lol. When I am out I still cant help but look for them 😆 . I just photograph them and leave em for the next person or animals.

[@josilynl5265]

You're not too far from Washington state and we have tons and tons and tons of wild ginger. I find it near the "iron horse trail" where it grows along the old train structures so its very easy to pick without uprooting other plants. It also grows on the east side of the state pretty close to the border.

[@AnnJSundayDrives]

That is great about getting a drone! I plan to get one too. Thanks for the Info on skill share. 👍 Take care.

[@kimgrant4975]

You are so fascinating Amanda! What a wealth of knowledge and creativity you possess. ✨👏👏👏 Namaste

[@WanderingWithWanda]

I'm so excited to see the drone scenes!! Yay!!

[@RescueDogTreats]

I really appreciate this video...very detailed and mindful of the environment and animals. Also, great “all around” tips for newbies, and the role of AI/social media! Thanks for this! Stay safe you two!

[@darbybell8684]

Love learning about foraging!! ❤️Yippee ❤️

[@karensimaeys295]

Amanda you are such a sweet person and so is Frank I just love your videos and I miss them when you are sick I pray that you can stay healthy not for the videos but for your health. thanks for being you!

[@bee-anca236]

Excited to try Skillshare! Thank you for the recommendation! I’ve been seeing it pop up a lot lately and can’t wait to get into it! So glad you’re feeling better! I just truly enjoy watching your content…it’s part of my wind down routine to just listen to the outdoors while being cooped up in the city!

[@blessedveteran]

I am definitely keeping this saved so I can come back to it, just in case I ever want to try this 😊. thank you for all this great information!

[@Shelty6]

I am a member of skill share also and love it! I use it for painting and playing guitar. Congratulations on your drone

[@Katiedid1975]

Glad you are feeling better. Dog slobber and morels. Yum?

[@Camille_Lee_Æon]

That basket is beautiful

[@hsoderberg6505]

I live in Michigan & have never seen morels for sale. It's 'find your own.'

[@chriskystoneadventures]

Thanks for the info Amanda great topic 👍👍⭐⭐🚐⭐⭐👍👍

[@normaevett]

I was going to take a foraging class near me, but then I heard Forestry Forest talk about encountering a nest of ticks while foraging and that scared me off! 😉

[@dixxebell]

I saw Foresty Forest pick some Morels and he cut it open an washed out the inside, is the inside hollow?

[@yureituesday]

There are mushrooms in Canada that can cause death. People forget this because this country is so safe for the most part. But a lady from our community died a few years ago after mistaking the identity of a mushroom she commonly picked.

[@bubblesrcshed]

This was a very informative video and I dig your toy basket 👍

[@jillongley7543]

Excellent episode! Is it my imagination, or does your drone look like a frog? I cant wait to see the beautiful vistas of your area..

[@cotter9751]

Thank you! Using your suggestions I've already found book resources at my local library.

[@zap...]

I love morel mushrooms! You got some good ones there! I would love to go foraging with you! Little grey Wisconsin morels are amazing.

[@kristinaespes2932]

I wonder if there will ever be a forager KZbin channel named "Foraging Forage." I can hear a song about that....

[@amyrowell8319]

So glad your feeling better. 😊🎶🍄
