As foraging or "wildcrafting" be-comes more popular, ethnobotany classes are cropping up all over the country. For foraging activities in your area, send a SASE to: Dr. Suzan Donleavy-Johnston, Coordinator of Botany Education, Department of Continuing Education, The New York Botanical Garden, Bronx, NY 10458.
When dealing with wild plants--as with any food--keep in mind that some people can eat anything, but others can't. "Even wild foods and herbs that are perfectly safe for most people can cause unpredicted allergic reactions," says Donleavy-Johnston.
