Hi, I'm Claire Weston 👋
A few years ago I was living like most people: exhausted, stressed, eating whatever came in a package, and watching my grocery bill grow while my energy shrank. Then my health hit a wall — and the doctors' answer was always the same: another prescription, another bill, no real change.
That's when I remembered my grandmother. She grew up during hard times, and she could walk through any field and come home with dinner. Wild greens, berries, roots, herbs for her teas and salves. She never called it "foraging" — she just called it knowing your land.
So I started learning — one plant at a time, making every beginner mistake so you don't have to.
Today, over a decade later, foraging feeds my family every single week — and I've helped thousands of complete beginners take their first safe steps into the wild.
This guide is everything I wish someone had handed me on day one: simple, safe, and made for people starting from zero.
