Testimonials
Christopher Nyerges is gifted and talented in many disciplines. Some people refer to him as an expert in several. His strongest areas of expertise, however, is his ability to connect with all students and his flexibility. Both are crucial traits of a great teacher.

I'm a docent instructor for ethnobotany at a nature park. Much of what I teach I've learned from Christopher. Our new docents in turn share with approximately 10,000 young students each year. The ethnobotany part they learned from me, and I in turn got my start with enthusiastic teaching of plants and outdoor survival skills from the best teacher you'll ever find on the subject, my friend Christopher Nyerges.


– Helen Sweaney
I have been coming to Christopher's primitive skills classes and wild food walks since my college days in 2005, and they are still some of the most valuable, useful, and interesting educational courses I've had in my life. ... Christopher's teaching style is easy to understand, clear, engaging, and with a good dose of humor. I highly recommend Christopher's classes to everyone who has the opportunity to experience the valuable wisdom he has to share...and enjoy the wild salad!
