Forgotten Wild Delicacies Of Goa | Seasonal. Local. Nearly Lost. | Goa Stories Special

Every monsoon, something quietly reappears in the forests and kitchens of Goa — wild, seasonal vegetables once rooted in tradition and everyday meals. But today, fast food, modern diets, and changing lifestyles have pushed these delicacies to the margins of memory. In this short documentary, three passionate voices — teacher Alka Phaldesai, forest food gatherer Suryakant Gaonkar, and youth researcher Samruddhi Kerkar — helped us rediscover more than 20 wild vegetables, including one so abundant it gave its name to an entire village. This is not just about food. It’s about knowledge, health, identity — and what we risk forgetting.
