Foraging with Steve Brill

There is probably a forest somewhere close(-ish) to you, and perhaps one that also needs your help. I think of the threatened hardwood forests around Knysna's urban sprawl on South Africa's southern coast and the awful Pezula development sitting atop the hills around Noetzie. The Afromontane forests in the kloofs around Cape Town. 

Where are your woods, and how are they doing?
