Author: Texas Parks and Wildlife Department October 2, 2019 Duration: 24:24
If you’re into fresh, locally-sourced food and connecting with nature, join us as our group forages for wild foods. Then Austin chef and author Jesse Griffiths cooks them into an awesome meal. All this freshness takes place at ecological showpiece Llano Springs Ranch, part of the new Explore Ranches conservation enterprise.

There's a particular quality to the light just before sunset in the Hill Country, and a certain quiet that settles over a pine forest in the Big Thicket. Under the Texas Sky captures those moments and everything in between, bringing the vastness of the state's landscapes right to your ears. Hosted by Cecilia Nasti and produced by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, this podcast is an invitation to step outside, whether you're on a remote trail or just imagining one from your couch. Each episode feels like a conversation with a friend who knows a secret fishing spot or the best way to set up a tent in the wind. You'll hear from biologists tracking elusive species, park rangers sharing stories from the field, and fellow enthusiasts who simply love to cook a meal over an open flame. It’s not just about extreme adventures; it’s about the tangible skills and the subtle wonders that make spending time in nature so rewarding. Tune in for practical advice that ranges from identifying bird calls to mastering campfire cuisine, all woven into narratives that remind us of our connection to the wild. This is more than a guide-it’s an audio companion for anyone who believes a deeper appreciation for the outdoors enriches daily life. So, find a comfortable spot and let this podcast be your soundtrack to discovering why life truly is better outside, under that wide and welcoming Texas sky.
