Live off the land -- in the city
Wild greens, mushrooms, fruit and even fish and game can be harvested in America's urban jungles. Dandelion salad, anyone? Or some batter-fried squirrel?
Feeling squeezed at the supermarket? Maybe you should be looking for food in the parking lot, or in your neighbor's yard.
We're talking dandelions, feral mushrooms, gleaned fruit, local fish or even those wascally wabbits that overrun city greenbelts. Ingenuity plus a little sweat equity can put fresh, healthful food on the table and possibly provide other benefits as well: exercise, relaxation and a different way of looking at your neighborhood.
For example:
Chauncey Niziol fishes for bass and bluegills in downtown Chicago.
Steven Rinella traps squirrels and catches pigeons in Brooklyn, N.Y.
Jeff Yeager harvests shoots from bamboo that grows in his suburban Washington, D.C., yard.
Katy Kolker harvests tree fruit that otherwise would have rotted in Portland, Ore.
"Radical ecologist" Nance Klehm plucks salads out of city sidewalks and leads urban foraging walks around her home city of Chicago. A few clients are survivalists, she says, or foodies who are looking for "unusual tastes." But most are simply "curious about the world around them." Foraging is "about a connection and an interaction with an environment," she says.
