Eric Knight is a native Austinite and co-author of Foraging Texas: Finding, Identifying, and Preparing Edible Wild Plants in Texas. He and his wife (and co-author), Stacy Coplin, are also co-founders of Local Leaf which locally wild-harvests yaupon to make a local, sustainable, yaupon matcha powder sold at all Austin-area Whole Foods locations and on the Local Leaf website.  Eric also leads edible plant walks through Local Leaf as well as through the LBJ Wildflower Center and Earth Native Wilderness School. He is a licensed environmental engineer by day with a passion for travel, botany, rare plants, and of course, wild edible plants.

For the August 12 chapter meeting, Eric will discuss common native and non-native wild edible plants found during Central Texas summers.
