When the coronavirus pandemic first shuttered businesses and restaurants across the country, Alexis Nikole Nelson – otherwise known as @blackforager on Tik Tok and Instagram – posted a video about finding edible plants in one’s own neighborhood.
“I went out in my neighborhood and I was like, ‘Hey, I know you re nervous about going to the grocery store. I am too! Let s meet five plants that are definitely growing in your neighborhood that you can eat,’” Nelson said.
