That&#8217;s Steve Brill, also known as\nthe Wildman, and he has been foraging for food in popular parks in the New York\narea for three decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brill is a self-taught forager,\nhaving learned from textbooks, and wishes to spread his knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;d like to make\nwhole-foods veganism and foraging more common,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He has been giving walking tours\nfor years and has taught people of all ages about the benefits of a whole-foods\nvegan diet. On his tours, he offers guests samples of his vegan recipes that\ninclude the plants he expects he will find on that day. Whole-foods veganism,\nwhich means being a vegan that truly lives off the land to Brill, is one of the\nmost important aspects of his life. He credits the diet and his passion for\nexercise as major contributors to his incredible health at the age of 70.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read the rest of this article here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vrg.org\/journal\/vj2019issue3\/2019_issue3_vegan_action.php\">https:\/\/www.vrg.org\/journal\/vj2019issue3\/2019_issue3_vegan_action.php<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Subscribe to <em>Vegetarian Journal<\/em> in the USA only by visiting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vrg.org\/member\/2013sv.php\">https:\/\/www.vrg.org\/member\/2013sv.php<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also subscribe to the Kindle version of <em>Vegetarian Journal<\/em> in the USA and United Kingdom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the USA,\nvisit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B07LBY2Y7K\/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1544727482&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=B07LBY2Y7K\">https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B07LBY2Y7K\/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1544727482&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=B07LBY2Y7K<\/a>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the\nUnited Kingdom, visit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/dp\/B07LBY2Y7K\/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1544731957&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=B07LBY2Y7K\">https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/dp\/B07LBY2Y7K\/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1544731957&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=B07LBY2Y7K<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Each issue of Vegetarian Journal features an activist promoting veganism.
