There was lots of time given to gathering, though it was some olives, many berries, and dandelions and some other flower petals in addition, that they knew were good to eat. So when the gatherers returned to the settlement later in the day, they knew they would have enough to eat that day of those things. Deseradar looked at the plants they hoped would resume growing, and he announced to all in the group who were still there, "We have squash and beans even ready for use, right now. We can gather what is ready, and heat them up for our food, to eat when they are ready."
Everyone was happy to hear that, so several started gathering those that were ready.
