Hello, we are Redding Forager's Association. The goal here is to make wild foods and medicines more available to people who have a hard time accessing these products while simultaneously having a positive impact on the local ecosystems where we harvest them. We do this by having conservative harvest procedures and by giving back more than we take. A large portion of our time is dedicated towards propagating native plants to be planted in areas in need of restoration- especially those areas devastated by wildfires.
Your orders on this store go 100% towards supporting these local restoration efforts in Northern California.
Our full line of products is available direct at Redding Forager dot com.
