Welcome on a mini webcourse on edible wild plants (horta) by Jouko Kivimetsä
Foraging wild plants, horta hunting (horta is the Greek name for wild leafy greens used like lettuce) is an exciting hobby and a holistic lifestyle, really. I myself have been doing it from the 90’s and still I am so excited about it. I have been doing and teaching horta walks in many countries, especially in Finland and Crete, over 20 years.
