interesting, not in my area I'm afraid. Good luck though.

how do you get access to the wild foods - are they on land owned by you or do you ask permission of farmers etc?

Is the article next Sunday? I couldn't seem to find it on the Independent website, but I might just be being a muppet...
They're not weeds - that's a habitat for wildlife, don't you know?
