Foragers

Foragers are humans or animals who obtain food by collecting naturally available resources from their environment, such as plants, fruits, nuts, and fish, rather than growing or hunting them. Historically, foraging was the primary way humans obtained sustenance before the development of agriculture. It involves knowledge of the land, seasonal cycles, and healthy resource management to sustainably gather what nature provides. Foragers rely on natural ecosystems and often have deep understanding and respect for their surroundings, ensuring they can meet their needs without depleting the resources.
