Every. Single. Bite.
Nature was my garden, my pantry and my pharmacy.
Now I'm here to share the story with you and help YOU reconnect with Earth and gain food freedom!
The 9 days of preparation began August 29th, 2022. The month of eating 100% foraged food was September 9th - October 9th (late summer and early fall).

It’s the dream of millions. To “live off the land” and never have to take a trip to the grocery store. And through the pandemic more and more Americans have experienced the instability of our food system and desire to break free.
But is it possible to break free? I am here to show that it is.

I'd love to see more about winter foraging; that's always hardest for me outside of mushrooms, rosehips, crabapples, and persimmons. I'm not always sure where to look in the winter, and it's harder to be motivated to search as long or as far into the woods when it's freezing out.

Planet Earth is made to give us abundance. Just use it in the right way. Rob shows how to do it!

This is new to Americans. My culture and people forage our food and grow our own crops back home.

Foraging was hard to do in our locale. But you inspired me to plant so many edible plants around my house and neighboring vacant lots. I sometimes sprinkle seeds to areas exposed to sunlight. I plant sweet potato vines and water spinach(kangkong) everywhere. Now I can easily find food around me.

You're the first I believe who does videos like this I've seen acknowledge the genocide and stolen land. I appreciate that.

I forage mushrooms. I take them home and try to introduce them to my garden. I also help them spread my neighborhood and around the area where I found them.
Foraging helps the plants as it creates a mutual beneficial relationship.

My dad worked at a chemical factory, and he made a lot of money and retired early and has a very good pension. So I never really thought too much about chemicals and food and everything else until two guys died after a field was accidentally sprayed when they were in it. 😢 To make a long story short. (Kind of🤷🏼♀️) My daughters fiancé worked for pioneer seed in Illinois and two migrant workers were in the field and there was some kind of communication issue, and the airplane came over and sprayed the fields. I don’t know if it was pesticides or whatever it was, but those two migrant workers died in a Hospital later that day. And I thought to myself, we are spraying our food with these chemicals that kill people. Why are we eating this? 😑😞😭 ever since then I have been looking for a better way of life. I live in Okeechobee Florida and I just purchased an acre of ground outside of town that has a trailer and a nice garage on it and I am trying to start a food Forrest. I saw, your video on the starter kit and I am definitely going to get me one of those. I already have mango, papaya, coconut, and a couple other trees going, but I definitely want more!! 😊 if you ever need a place to live you are more than welcome to stay at my house for free! I don’t even stay there most of the time I live with my dad about 10 miles away because my mom just died in April and he needs the help. So anyways my place is empty and free if you ever need a place to stay.

I believe he covered this a little in the video but: any progress away from big ag is still progress!
I know in my journey to try and move away from big ag, it can be intimidating seeing how big the problem is, and how complicated and drastic the solutions can seem. And I believe it is important to remember that there is value in even doing just 2% of the ideal.
A small garden, knowing just a few edible plants, even supporting local farmer's markets are all steps away from corporate horrors and they all still count!

He would win the hunger games probably

You are doing a fabulous job, helping people to reconnect with nature and themselves. From Belgium with solidarity. 😀💪👋💚

If you ever come to the Eastern part of Connecticut please visit with us so that we can trample through our woods and see what food is out there. We do natural landscaping so even our yard must be full of something. Be well and stay safe.

Haven't watched your videos in a bit but after seeing this one I am once again hit with the realisation if how we're all kind of trapped in this broken system, and that it is high time for me to pick up where I left off breaking free from it. You are so inspiring and I truly hope to attend one of your food walks or talks someday.

I started watching you when you did this before for a year, I’m still amazed.

You are such an inspiration Rob, thank you for living by your values so wholeheartedly, and sharing your process with us all!

Monica Wilde did the same for a year in Scotland. She has a book about it called 'The Wilderness Cure'.

Rob, you look so happy! Thank you so much for sharing your accomplishments and journey! And for teaching us!

It has to start in the mind. So true. Because many won't touch produce unless it's pre-washed and packaged.

the stuff about the food system makes me think of a really ignorant letter to the editor in the washington post that was saying wild food should be for wild animals and trying to say foraging is bad for the environment... like grocery store food isn't?? i'm sure that she'd never heard of ethical foraging or thought about how many invasives are edible

Thank you for sharing your experiences and showing decolonizing methods, such as food sovereignty and foraging!!
