Wild Taste of Nature Bud Richardt

Irv has been interested in wild edibles since he was in college in the 60's. When he was president of the Audubon Society in Evansville Indiana, he and Doris Eicher would put on wild edible feasts sponsored by the Audubon Society. In the mid 90's he wrote a wild edible column for Hoosier Sportsman. Bud had a keen interest in nature all his life and was a self-taught beekeeper and computer manipulator. Part of foraging for wild edibles is being outdoors and enjoying nature rather than being in a crowded supermarket and being alone even though there are hundreds of people around you.
