Foraging brings in a wild harvest in the Borders
Statistics suggest about a quarter of us forage from the wild at least occasionally, whether it is picking brambles or gathering a few mushrooms.
For some people getting food for free borders on an obsession.
BBC Scotland's Huw Williams went for a walk in the borders with Fi Martynoga to see what they could find.
If you are going out foraging, please check the identification of everything you gather before you eat it.
