I wish you every success and wish I had done something similar as a way of weaning myself onto my current wild food project which is probably about to hit the rocks due to health problems which may or may not be dietary related. How about an extra twist - eat nothing if it is packaged. If we finally get summer sun it would be well worth gathering and drying lots of seaweed for winter use. Actually, if I have a free space on my foraging course (if I'm still alive to run them) and you'd like to come for free, do so. Foraging skills are good to have if you just want to source food locally - as long as you pick sustainable. Best wishes, Fergus It should be achievable with little trouble but much discipline.

Maybe after you've figured out how to eat completely locally, there could be a local picnic so everybody can try it out? Good luck!
