🌿 Hello from the hedgerow!

Rocen Homesteady is a free online resource helping people across the UK learn to forage safely, live sustainably, and reconnect with the natural world.

We believe everyone should have access to foraging education — regardless of budget. That's why our entire plant database, identification games, and safety tools are completely free. No paywalls. No premium tiers.

But keeping the hedges trimmed costs money. Here's what your coffee helps us do:

🌱 Maintain and expand our UK plant database (150+ edible plants and counting)

☠️ Keep our dangerous lookalike warnings accurate and up-to-date

🍄 Build new interactive games for kids and families

🐝 Support our free beekeeping simulator and guides

📚 Add new seasonal content every month

🖥️ Pay for server costs so the site stays free for everyone

If a plant ID, a safety warning, or a game has helped you or your family — that's what we're here for. A coffee helps us keep the lights on and the content growing.

🫖 Prefer tea? That works too. We're not fussy — we're foragers.

Thank you for being part of the Rocen Homesteady community.

⚠️ Safety reminder: Never eat a wild plant based solely on an app. Always cross-reference with a field guide or expert. "If in doubt, leave it out."
