Free Food – live off the land hunting and gathering

For years, I have been living on a $20 per week food bill. I hunted, fished and gathered tasty and healthy food that I loved to eat. I fixed my chronic health problems and got fitter than ever before. And collecting and preparing wild food was surprisingly time-efficient.

Sounds too good to be true?

Now it is time for me to show you how I do it. Learn how I hunt and fish and what plants I forage for my daily meals.

This 2-hour online group session will provide you with the basic knowledge of how to eat wild yourself.
