Using your Foragers Bag
Perfect for wild plants, berries, mushrooms and more, the Collapsible Foragers Bag snaps onto a belt or backpack strap and unfolds to carry up to a liter of foraged food. Here's how to use it:
Snap your Foragers Bag onto your belt
Unsnap two of the brass snaps on the back of your bag, and slip the square belt patch over a belt, cross body strap, or pack strap. Realign the snaps and press firmly to attach.
Unfold your Foragers Bag and start Gathering
Once you find the food, tinder, or other items you're looking for, pop open the snaps on the front of your bag and unfold the canvas. Spread the top of the bag wide with your hands to make it easier to add items to your bag.
Your Foragers Bag can be used for foraging plants, mushrooms, berries, and other forest food. Made from a food-grade waxed canvas, your bag is dirt and stain resistant.
Your Foragers Bag isn't limited to food. It's also great for collecting tinder for a fire, carrying a liter-sized water bottle (like a Nalgene), carrying dog treats or waste bags, or collecting other items while on a walk.
Your bag can be lightly closed using the flip cover on the back of the bag. Simply flip the cover over the top of the bag to close it.
If foraging for a lot of food food at once, you can line your bag with a thin liner (produce bags or dog bags work well), remove and tie off bags once they're full, and replace with another liner to continue foraging.
When full, your bag can also be easily removed from your belt by unsnapping two or more snaps. Removing a full bag makes empying the bag much easier.
To clean your bag, turn it inside out and brush lightly by hand or with a soft bristle brush, wipe with a damp cloth, or run it under water.
Folding your Bag
When you're finished foraging, your bag can be folded up to sit discretely on your belt. Follow these steps to fold your bag:
Step 1: Flatten your bag and fold into thids along the long sides.
Step 2: Fold the bottom of your bag up to the bottom seam of the flip cover.
Step 3: Fold the top of your bag down. Fold the canvas bag only, not the leather cover.
Step 4: Fold the bottom of the bag and the bottom of the leather cover up.
Step 5: FOld the top of the leather cover down, align the brass snaps, and press to snap together.
Now you're ready to forage whenever the opportunity strikes! Complete your kit with an XL Universal Knife Sheath and an Opinel Mushroom Knife for even more.
