From survivorman to bigfoot now this ,Unbelievable job Les showing the average person so.e of the most important life advice and knowledge for the outdoors Well Done
This series is so inspirational to me. Thank you so much for sharing all the episodes with us here on youtube, Les. I love the clever periods where there is no voice, just the imagery leaving time for our own thoughts and imagitation to kick in that goes a little beyond what is actually shown. That for me brings in extra an experience that I didn't know I was capable of. If there is one thing I would like to see more (I know you've already touched this briefly before in your shows) is: How to help the existing flora to grow further and not be affected by our own harvest. Even a regular dandelion where I live can easily be killed by a harvest. Maybe I can kill one, but I could perhaps help another one to be more stronger. Or maybe I could visit it during the seed stage and help to fill in the gap. I think it is important to show respect and gratitude to the plant, even if it is considered a weed. Including this part to your harvest would in my mind assert your empathy and good intentions towards the nature (which I know you posses).
Seeing the pleasure on Les face bring me happiness
The only weed that exist is the one I smoke
I enjoy foraging, mushrooms tend to be the bulk of my foraging .
I live in the midwest United States , and even in winter we have edible mushrooms such as flamullina velutipes and panellus serotinus.
Spring brings everyone's beginners fungus the morchella species.
That is also when ramps are popping up, and ramp compound butter is an awesome resource.
I love this show Les, thank you and thanks chef Paul.
This show is like a salve/balm for the hectic world we live in. Thanks for providing us with an educational moment of peace.
Was that a mini shovel with a sheathe, or was he digging in the ground with his knife?
Man, I just rewatched the entire original series on your channel Les, so you have impeccable timing uploading the new season now!
I grew up getting stung by nettle and ripping out wild mustard and radish from our carrot fields. So strange thinking about utilizing something I was taught to hate.
They are wild invasives.
Another great episode! I noticed another Stroud in the credits. It’s nice to see Logan getting involved with your passion. I look forward to seeing him in some DCs soon.
I am not using weed killers anymore. I definitely got to try some dandelions this spring. That’s one wild edible I don’t need to look up the see if it’s what it is.
I could watch Paul cook all day. Love the show Les! Thank you for season 2.
Thank you for this content guys!
I can't wait for Dandelions to come out now.
Looked great guys as always! I wish you wouldn't of added mustard to the European mustard. I feel you were not getting the full flavor with extra mustard. I will def be trying this next spring!!
I just moved to Spokane from the Olympic peninsula in Washington, I am so excited to try and find a local expert on wild edibles. I now the edibles on the peninsula but not out here. I’m so excited

Swainsons thush is my favorite bird. They live all around my neighborhood and some years right outside my house. I feel blessed to be able to associate home with the sound of a bird call as beautiful as theirs.
Great show guys.
only one criticism egg whites and egg shells in a waist bowl make a pavlova
I can’t watch this anymore. You’re incredibly patronizing to Paul and it’s awful. You used to be a cool dude, Les. Maybe you should find some of that old humility again.
