How it works
Pick your place
Tap your ecoregion or state. We map the country into 52 ecoregions so seasons actually match your ground.
See what's ripe
A live calendar shows which species are at peak, coming into shoulder season, or done for the year.
Forage safely
Each species lists its difficulty, toxic lookalikes, and any processing it needs before it's safe to eat.
Grounded in real observation data
Forage Calendar's seasons come from millions of georeferenced plant and fungus records published through GBIF and iNaturalist, mapped onto US Level III ecoregions. The result is a foraging calendar tuned to where you actually stand, not a one-size-fits-all chart.
Foraging carries real risk. Always confirm an identification with multiple sources and, ideally, an experienced local before eating anything wild.
