This guy rocks. He needs his own show.

My mother was weeding the yard, decades ago. She was pulling dandelions. My grandmother said, “don’t throw those out Patty! Those are good eats!” My mother said, “…..oh mother! Don’t say things like that!” My grandmother was my hero, now we know why she lived to be 100.

This guy is so relaxed and happy, I can't help but smile while watching. My favorite quote...."we don't get to eat a lot of tree leaves".
-
You know how he manages to shine the light so brightly? He's eating the Sun's energy directly! Pure unrefined energy man!
-
I love when he said "This is another great friend to connect with" Bob Ross of plants 🤔
-
I feel so silly, I have been battling with stinging nettles in my garden for as long as I can remember. Now I am going to give them a space to grow.
-
I wish there were more longer close ups so we can really see. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and doing this video.

He gives off a mellow 'herb' smoking vibe.
-
This man's knowledge is simply amazing
-
Dang this guy is a walking encyclopedia! Amazing. He's way the heck over my head, but I really appreciate him sharing his knowledge. Thanks to Rob for finding and filming him. Subscriber from Florida.

Oh!! I met Eric in Tennessee at a wild foods gathering ~ 5, 6 years ago. I was so comforted and impressed by his gentle connection to the plants and vast knowledge, even of Latin names as we’re seeing here. Thanks for existing, Eric! Love you brother
-
We enjoy Mulberry leaf tea and also mulberry fruit tea in Korea. I often prepare mulberry fruit tea for my friends when we gather around. It tastes so great!

That cat is definitely foraging for some incredible edibles too.

Thank you for saying, "I love you all very much." I wrote down all 10. Have several in my yard. Going to look for more.😊 Love, Ms Pat from southern Indiana
-
In México, we still consume most of the plants he mentioned 😊
-
The Basswood leaves look big enough to substitute for grape leaves and stuff them with rice or other grains. Definitely educational, love learning about wild edibles!
-
Eric needs his own books, education material for future generations!!! The sharing of knowledge.
-
Am I the only one who feels like that dude is like the shaman of our tribe, so focused and intentional, thank you guys

I absolutely love the bitterness of Dandelion. The bitterness stimulates bile from the Liver which is necessary for excellent digestion.
