I was surprised to not find a section on wild crops here, so I added one that references farming mechanics.

* {{ll|Wild Foods|Wild Crops}} can be found around the world. They spawn in varying states of growth, and are only harvestable when fully mature. In addition to food they are one of the main ways of acquiring seeds for {{ll|Farming|farming}} along with {{ll|ruin|ruins}} and {{ll|Trading|trading}}. Wild crops can also be an easy way to acquire {{ll|Flax|flax}} before you have a {{ll|Farming|farm}}. | |||
* {{ll|Mushroom|Mushrooms}} can be harvested with a {{ll|knife|knife}} or empty hands. They will regrow at the exact spot, so marking mushroom clusters on the map can be advantageous. Make sure to check the mushroom with the Handbook to check for poisonous variants, as some mushrooms can drain your {{ll|health|health}} or even kill you when consumed raw or cooked. They can be found on the ground or on trees, and are (mostly) found in forests. | * {{ll|Mushroom|Mushrooms}} can be harvested with a {{ll|knife|knife}} or empty hands.

* Ripe {{ll|Berry|Berry Bushes}} can be harvested without tools, and then broken and replanted anywhere else. After a while they will start to bloom again. | * Ripe {{ll|Berry|Berry Bushes}} can be harvested without tools, and then broken and replanted anywhere else.

* {{ll|Cattail|Cattail}} roots can be harvested using a knife and cooked over a fire as a source of early game forage. However, eating the roots gets rid of the plant, so it is best to try to avoid until you make all reed chests and baskets you plan to make. | * {{ll|Cattail|Cattail}} roots can be harvested using a knife and cooked over a fire as a source of early game forage.

* Most animals can be killed and harvested with a knife for nutritious meat and fat, as well as items useful later in the game like bones and hide. Bones can be gathered after exiting the menu by destroying the skeleton left behind. Sneak and hold the {{RMB}} with a knife in hand to harvest animals. Meat must be cooked in a fire pit.</translate> | * Most animals can be killed and harvested with a knife for nutritious meat and fat, as well as items useful later in the game like bones and hide.
