Unfortunately, in the spring of 2016 Kern River Wildharvesting Cooperative was robbed & forced to close.

We currently plan to model a second wildharvesting cooperative in 2018 in a different part of the state. By gearing up, training, & then documenting “the first wildharvesting cooperative in the country”, we anticipate creating a replicable model which can be implemented just about anywhere, especially as The Wild Living Skills Database & Smartphone App continues to be developed.
