ABOUT GATA DA MATA
In Gata da Mata we are passionate foragers and edible wild plant worshipers (and nature lovers in general). It is a project based on experiences we have been collecting along many years and we keep learning and sharing our knowledge. For now, our focus will be on posting about wild plant usage in cooking and household.
Apart from the plants, Gata da Mata may drift to other crafts from fermentation and natural cosmetics to mushroom production and soil regeneration. Join our journey!
