The bill establishes the Minnesota Sustainable Foraging Task Force, which is tasked with developing scientifically sound recommendations for foraging regulations on state lands. The task force will consist of various members, including legislators, representatives from foraging organizations, scientists, and tribal members, with appointments required to be made by July 1, 2025. The task force's duties include gathering data on the impact of foraging, reviewing existing regulations, and creating guidelines that balance public access with conservation needs. They are also responsible for increasing public understanding of sustainable foraging practices and developing recommendations for reduced-priced foraging permits.

Additionally, the bill imposes a moratorium on any rule-making related to foraging by the commissioner of natural resources until July 1, 2027. The task force is required to submit a report with its findings and recommendations by February 28, 2026, after which it will expire on March 15, 2026, or upon submission of the report, whichever comes later. The task force's recommendations must be actionable and consider Indigenous and cultural practices.
