Episode 3: Foraging for Beginners (ft. Liv Sisson)

Sam Low and Jean Teng don't know much about foraging. In this episode, they talk to Liv Sisson (author of Fungi of Aotearoa) about the fungi of Aotearoa, the beauty of foraging, and why framing foraging against the cost of living crisis is lazy, actually (i.e. it will not be able to replace your grocery shop, fyi!). We also go urban foraging with a friend of the show, Ezra, who runs a foraging Instagram account showcasing his best finds @berrysnacker. Disclaimer: This episode is not a field guide to foraging, but a beginner's engagement with the act... and, perhaps, a gentle encouragement for you to try it on your own. -- Follow Ate Ate Ate on Instagram Follow Sam Low on Instagram Follow Jean Teng on Instagram -- Thanks to Liv Sisson and Ezra Whittaker.
