A forager is a person who collects edible plants or fungi for consumption.
Urban foragers may collect in city parks, private lands, and sidewalks.
Urban foraging has gained in popularity in the 21st century, as people share their knowledge, experiments, and research about local flora online.
[1] Notable foragers include "Wildman" Steve Brill, Sean Sherman, Alexis Nikole Nelson, Samuel Thayer, and chef Sami Tallberg.
Foragers typically seek out herbs, fruits, roots, and mushrooms from nature to create dishes to eat.
