Further to the Edible Wilds hike at the BBQ, members may be interested in this article, An Abundance of Caution: Wild Food and Risk, just posted on the Northern Woodlands web site. On a related note, I highly encourage you to explore this web site. We have it listed amongst other useful resources in the References section of our web site (right-side column) and, though Vermont-based, much of their content is applicable to our area.
