Same here. More than once I've wondered at some of the homeless peoples' lack of awareness of local resources. Our local parks are full of rabbits, squirrels, geese, ducks, Mulberry trees, black berries, dandelions, plantain, onions, garlic, black walnut trees, hickory trees, etc. and most are near the river and have creeks running through them.
Good to know about your local resources.
Back where I used to live, an old local man used to be down by the river at one spot many days of the week. Always had a bucket or two of fish he'd caught, at least from spring through fall. The fish were not small.
He fed his family primarily with fish he'd caught from the river, right in the heart of a city (a smaller city, but still a city).
