Don’t eat the red berry In the rain forest

    It is always good to hear about red berries. Walking in this rain forest we are truly in a different world within our world, surrounded by green, the smell of decomposing plant life, the sounds of unseen animals. The city, though not far away, is actually very far away. As we hike, our voices are captured by the space around us and it feels like we are being held here by unseen forces.  Whether you are on Mombacho in Nicaragua or in rain forests in Costa Rica, the advice is the same. Don’t eat anything if you don’t know what it is. Red is nature’s stop sign. Jose makes sure we know that there are some things you are not wise to do in this preserve, even if temptation is strong. Being tempted in the garden goes way back in human history.
