The Foraging Bandana is designed to act as a learning primer, field aid, or emergency reference. It shows the 12 most common wild plants/fungi of North America and indicates their field uses using part indicator icons, giving you the ability to safely forage in the backcountry or your own backyard. Whether you’re an expert forager or a newbie, this wearable foraging tool can educate, encourage impromptu foraging, and help in sharing the passion of foraging with others.
