Alright, I thought I already posted this, but apparently didn't. I'm going to guess everyone is at least vaguely familiar with those "wild food" stores. I always found those interesting, due to the fact they point out the sheer craziness of consumer culture, intentionally paying more for something you know is available freely. But then I thought "this would be a badass way to make money!" It also didn't seem like the kind of thing you use "employees" for, so I emailed one of them and sure enough:
So does anyone know how these kind of places pay? Getting paid to practice foraging skill doesn't sound that bad.
Also, it should be easy to cut out the middle man. If you got a space at a farmer's market you could probably make easy money selling such exotic veggies as dandelion leaves and cattail heads.
Hi ----:
Michigan foragers come to me when and as they can, and we check their quality, and discuss price and go from there.
Give me a call at 517.668.2402, extension 125 and we can talk about mushrooms
Take care
