“When I was a kid, raising animals, growing food in our garden,

and picking up wild berries, nuts and plants weren’t considered weird or special; they were a normal part of life. The knowledge was used by elders, who would pass it on to the next generation. In many modernized countries, this cycle of transferring knowledge has been lost.”

– Pascal Baudar
