Recently I have started exploring my local woods and parks for herbs and leaves to use for teas and cooking. Today I found Three Cornered Leek and some wild garlic growing right next to it ! I love running around with my little plant identifier app and becoming more and more able to identify all the edible ( and terribly not edible) plants growing around me each day. I pop on my little foraging playlist that makes me feel like a wizard and I skip home with my baggie full of leaves:) This is the wild garlic I found today
I have a mental map of where the rosemary bushes are and I love to take a walk with a plastic bag to grab a little and walk back home like rapunzel eating from the forbidden garden
a bunch of awesome books and is so fun to do! itβs so exciting when you can correctly identify a plant youve never seen before in one of your books while on the trail! i also have books on toxic/poisonous flora which i also like to play the above game with (this applies to funghi too!!!)
