Foraging / Food in Nature

Project work in cooperation with BORA, Austria

The BORA FORAGING Kit combines traditional plant knowledge with modern technology: an app with recipes and locations, a DNA testing device for reliable plant identification, and a functional basket for transport—for sustainable gathering and learning.

The aim of this project is to preserve and pass on valuable knowledge about plants. In addition, traditional materials and techniques are used and combined with modern or future technology.

The BORA FORAGING Kit consists of three components. An app that provides information about usable plants, their locations and possible recipes. A DNA testing device that enables reliable identification and categorization of the plants found. And a basket that is perfect for transporting the collected food home thanks to its formal and material properties.
