Hit the Woods! And Eat Up!

Warm up the griddle and get a stack of "cakes" going and think about topping it off with White Birch syrup. ????? What? White Birch Syrup?

Check it out, this Thursday marks the broadcast of a story we shot last summer on Wisconsin forager, Sam Thayer. Thayer has made White Birch Syrup in addition to hundreds of other foodstuffs from plants that he harvested from Wisconsin's landscapes. Thayer is one of the top names in the country in the world of foraging and this story focuses on his new venture: a nature trail devoted to wild edibles. It is, as far as Thayer knows, the only one in the nation. We travel the trail with Thayer this week. Cue the pancakes!
