This sort of stuff will help prolong outings and protect harvested materials. For example, live plants wrapped in slightly damp paper towels/newspaper then put into a ziploc bag/shopping bag and kept out of the sun will not wilt as bad as other methods of storing them. They can then last longer and have a better chance of being transplanted. Other things, plant tops tubers for drying may need netting to help begin the dehydrating process.
