Hello from America,
I'm Darryl from the United States where I am a teacher, writer (herbal medicine etc..) and a primitive skills instructor. I got a nice e-mail from one of your members and decided to check out the site - LOVE IT! Glad to see you have a lot of interest over there.
I teach a wide range of primitive and wilderness skills ranging from hand drill, to brain tanning, edible/medicinal plants etc... I'll be more than happy to share what I know from this side of the Atlantic. For many years I was fortunate to study medicinal plants with an elderly mountain herbalist who gathered them for 81 years and taught me to identify and use literally several thousand of them. A lot of them are similar and/or related to many in Europe so perhaps I can enlighten you on some of the uses for them here.
Anyways, feel free to holler at me and I will see what I can do from this end. I am also the editor/publisher of Stalking The Wild...Magazine and will post a link soon on where you can download a pdf of the first two issues. Take them and enjoy! I'd greatly appreciate constructive feedback on what you think of them.
