Sunny Savage
Sunny Savage fell in love with wild foods at an early age whilst growing up in the Northwoods of Minnesota, USA where she inherited her parent’s eagerness to reconnect with nature and the land. Now Sunny is an Internationally recognized wild food expert & teacher who has created the Savage Kitchen mobile-app; empowering people in utilizing edible invasive plant species so they can feel comfortable navigating the wild world and ideally enjoy “one wild food every day”. Her wild food cooking series Hot on the Trail was filmed and aired globally & she is also the producer of the Local Food Challenge Documentary. She has presented on TedxMaui and is the author of the book Wild Food Plants of Hawai’i. In the past, she had an eco clothing line working with Wild Himalayan Nettle fabrics called Savage Designs, been an Interpretive naturalist at Topanga Canyon State Park and Malibu Lagoon State Beach plus been faculty at the White Earth Tribal & Community College. In her even earlier years, her adventures included 1 year in Antarctica, 3 years of life aboard a sailboat, work with the Pygmy in the Congo & volunteering in the Dalai Lama’s temple. Her wild and passionate spirit is driven by themes of freedom. Learning and sharing about wild plants is the juice that runs through her veins.
