Let's get wild! Herbalist Megan Edge joins us to talk about foraging, ethical harvesting, working with invasive plants, wild lettuce, medicinal mushrooms and so much more! Megan Edge comes from a long line of foragers and, having foraged across Canada in both wild and urban settings, she has a wealth of experience to share. A generational forager, Megan has ethically harvested from the forest since a child and now, through her shop, Beyond the Garden Gate, she shares Mother Nature’s healing bounty with her herbal teas, salves and tinctures.Learn more about Megan's work at www.meganedge.caShop Megan's line of herbal products: www.beyondthegardengate.caDownload two FREE e-books written by Megan:10 Easy to Grow Culinary and Medicinal Herbs for Your Garden 10 Easy to Grow Culinary and Medicinal Flowers for Your GardenFollow the link and when prompted, use the password gardengate to access and download both books; http://www.beyondthegardengate.ca/ebooks.htmlIf you'd like to learn even more about using herbs to craft medicinal teas, tinctures and oils, check out Bevin's award-winning book, The Artisan Herbalist at https://www.smallhousefarm.com/product-category/books/
