Forest to Table Foraging on International Women's Day
This episode stars two amazing women who have the same surname and are both star foragers, specialized in making wild plants into delicious and healthy concoctions. Katja Rebolj is a renowned forager who has appeared on Netflix, while Tanja Rebolj is the so-called “blonde witch of Jezersko” who forages alpine plants within a range of one kilometer from her home and makes the most mind-blowing liquors out of them.

Katja and Tanja are examples of kind, strong women to be celebrated, and what better day to do so than Women's Day. Both are connected through the Slovenian cultural tradition of foraging, herbalism, tea-making and, of course, making schnapps.
