Nathan Wright: An Epic Chaga Foraging Adventure

When Nathan Wright hopped on our HerbMentor Radio call, he readily admitted that he wasn't really in the podcast recording mood. And it totally made sense — after all, he had just returned from an epic adventure in the Michigan wilderness and was still adjusting to being back in the swing of everyday life.

And little did we know when we got on this call that we were in for one of the most fascinating stories ever told on HerbMentor Radio: the story of Nathan's search for the tree that gifted him a 30 pound chaga mushroom decades ago.

Along the twists and turns of Nathan's tale, we learned...

• The true meaning of reciprocity with the plants
• The benefits of chaga
• What exactly is ethical wildcrafting and how to do it
• What it means to be a caretaker of the land and so much more!

Nathan Wright is a citizen of the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians and member of his tribe’s Crane Clan. Nathan is an herbalist and mycologist who combines both Anishinabek and conventional herbal knowledge into his herbal products business, Herbal Lodge.
