Featuring 24 wild ingredients, traditional cooking methods, and interesting recipes, The Wild Food Zine captures our efforts to document the knowledge of Maharashtra’s wild foods, harvested in the monsoons.
This is the second print edition of our Wild Food Zine, part of the Wild Food Project by The Locavore in collaboration with OOO Farms. In this project, we ventured into Maharashtra’s Palghar district to explore and document the wild foods available during the rainy season.
Our first edition of 300 printed copies sold out quickly after its publication, and due to the overwhelming number of requests we received from India and abroad, we have decided to reprint it.
However, what makes this reprint even more special is that we are now releasing a Marathi version of the zine as well. This is our way of giving back to the community members in Palghar who generously guided us throughout the project. They opened their homes and farms, teaching us about wild foods, how to cook with them, and sharing delicious recipes for us to document.
The profits from the sale of these zines will be shared with the Adivasi communities in Palghar through OOO Farms. This is our commitment to supporting and empowering these communities who have played an integral role in our journey.
In this zine, you will discover 24 unique ingredients, their seasonality, identification tips, traditional cooking methods, and our team’s innovative recipes. Order your copies today, available in English and Marathi, and join us in shaping a delicious future.
*Please note that we will be shipping these in batches every 2 weeks and we will be keeping you posted about your deliveries closer to when we send them out.
