Today, we are sharing an episode of Going Wild with Dr. Rae Wynn-Grant, the chart-topping and Webby Award-winning podcast from our friends at Nature on PBS. Back for a brand new season, Going Wild features some of the coolest champions of nature – like a paleoanthropologist who hunts fossils in conflict zones, and a former butterfly technician who saved an endangered species while incarcerated. Each episode explores what led them to create change within themselves, their community, and the natural world.
In today’s episode, you hear from Alexis Nikole Nelson, better known to her millions of fans on TikTok as the “Black Forager.” She talks all about rediscovering her childhood love of foraging and falling back in love with food and plants. It’s a really inspiring conversation, and just one example of the many exciting stories in the brand new season of Going Wild.
