Did any one else get more details on Dr Parmar's presentation? Did he talk about species that are in his book or other species? Are transcripts available?

Dr. Chiranjit Parmar showed slides of various fruits, herbs and other
edibles from the area of the Himalayas in which he lives. Most plants are
not known to Westerners, but Parmar says they can be developed in the US.
It was difficult to understand his narrative, so I didn't get much out of
the explanations. One thing stuck out, though. All these plants are wild
and for the taking. He said that anyone can harvest them, and they do.
Then they sell them in his town market or sell them to vendors. There is no
such thing as ownership of these vast plantings.
