Forage & Feast in Asheville

Ready to go WILD? Discover how safe and easy foraging can be. Enjoy find dining as you meet 10-20 wild foods, including many you might find in your own backyard. Then it’s “finders, eaters” as one of five local restaurants prepares a free appetizer with lunch or dinner featuring the edibles you’ve discovered.

We’ve been taking people “out to eat” for nearly twenty-five years. Together, we explore the Blue Ridge Mountains surrounding Asheville, North Carolina, the second most biodiverse temperate rainforest on Earth. Groups average ten participants, and tours are suitable for all ages and abilities. Our introductory e-book is included, all equipment is provided, and your satisfaction is guaranteed.

Our guides are all experts in the field, including a former forager for over 75 restaurants, a naturopathic doctor, a board member of the North American Fruit Explorers, and an ethnobotanist with a master’s in Appalachian studies. For them, foraging is a way of life. With passion and precision, they make foraging safe and fun.
