In this episode we chat with Rachel Zoller (you might know her as @yellowelanor on Instagram). We love chatting with Rachel because she brings her self-taught knowledge and enthusiasm to foraging and combines it with her ability to teach and explain in such an approachable way. While we aren’t currently able to forage in Washington State (recorded in April 2020 during coronavirus quarantine) we came away encouraged to use this time to educate ourselves so that when restrictions ease, we’ll be all the more ready to get out and find some fungi.
