Y'all don't forget the CONTESTS built into this series. One SBI for a name, five for the needle! That makes thirty one shares for the series if someone claims the prize before the post pays out.
While food forests are largely man-made, I see Wildcrafting as a system using subtle influence of people. Maybe you find a stand of grapes that produce well and spread a few seeds to neighboring trees. Essentially you're helping spread a natural resource to influence the establishment of a natural food forest.
That's how Nate sees it anyways. I listened to a few episodes of Permaculture Voices Podcast with Diego Footer and they were specifically talking about wildcrafting with medicinal fungi if memory serves.
I'm not sure if there's separate ethics about native and invasive species inside wildcrafting, but I imagine there is. It seems a method where that would matter a lot.
Have you tried Wildcrafting and foraging? It's something that I'm interested I and haven't messed with yet, as I'm currently focused elsewhere within permaculture. Maybe this spring I'll start looking more into it. :)
Be blessed.
Be fruitful.
Stay relevant.
Nate.
