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 aim to balance ecological sustainability with the public's right to foraging. It will be composed of various members, including legislators, scientists, Indigenous representatives, and experts in food safety and conservation, among others. The commissioner of natural resources is responsible for forming the task force by September 1, 2025, and ensuring that no appointed member is a registered lobbyist.

The task force will gather data on the impact of foraging, review existing regulations, and create guidelines that consider both public access and conservation needs. It will also develop educational materials to promote sustainable foraging practices and create a permitting model that allows foraging permits to be obtained through volunteerism. The task force is required to submit a report with its findings and recommendations by December 1, 2026, after which it will expire on September 1, 2026, or upon submission of the report, whichever is later.
