Rethinking Forest Foods with Dr. Eric Burkhart

The Poor Prole’s Almanac · Oct 2, 2023 · 1h 13m

In this episode, we're joined by Dr. Eric Burhart from Penn State's Environmental Center. Eric's focus is around wild plant research, stewardship, and use, and we get to dive into this subject specifically around ramps and ghost pipe, although he has an extensive background in American ginseng and goldenseal as well. We explore the ways these plants are impacted and can be impacted by invasives, and what the future holds for these special species that inhabit our forests across the east coast.
