  • This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Wild food harvester, expert forager, teacher and adventurer Sunny Savage shares why she believes adding one wild food a day to our diets can drastically improve our health, the health of our ecosystems, and the health of the planet.
    Wild food harvester, expert forager, teacher and adventurer.
    A wild food advocate, Sunny Savage’s work weaves through the fields of media, education and business. She is the host, writer and associate producer of the internationally renowned wild food adventure cooking TV show, Hot on the Trail, and has been a headlining chef at the Taste of Chicago, the world’s largest food festival. She is a co-founder of the Wild Food Summit, an annual gathering that attracts wild “foodies” from across America.
    Her belief in the nutritional power and sustainability implications of wild foods has inspired her work in education since 2001. Sunny served as faculty at the White Earth Tribal and Community College, worked with the Center for Food Safety in Washington, DC, and reached thousands of children as an Interpretive Naturalist at Topanga Canyon State Park and Malibu Lagoon State Beach. Other experience includes working at McMurdo Station in Antarctica, with Tibetan refugees at the Dalai Lama’s temple in India and founding Savage Designs, an innovative clothing and design company.
    Sunny has traveled to every continent and spent three years on a sailboat filming a documentary about the life skills our youth will need to thrive in a quickly changing world. During her time at sea, she stopped off in Costa Rica, where she was a guest presenter at the UN-mandated University for Peace.
    About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

    Totally believe! I grew up eating wild blackberries, dandelion greens and a host of vegetables that were "volunteers' from a previous season of planting. "Sickle" pears and apple trees that just grew without help from pesticides were our snacks on a glorious Autumn day!

    I can barely afford a run-down small apartment with a tiny balcony, why am I watching stuff about gardens?
    On a serious note, I love gardens, but I was forced to live in a place, where there was not even a public garden in proximity and I know way too many people that can't even grow some vegetables, because half of us can't even afford to live in the city in the first place, but that's where jobs are at... When affordable living space requires over 1h commute and 1000 people try to get the same 50m2 flat in the worst part of the city, then you know that politicians screwed up! (I'm talking about Europe BTW and it doesn't matter if it's England, Germany or Switzerland, it's the same sh!t everywhere)
