Learning plant identification skills.

Hey mate,

Yesterday, Carol and I hosted our monthly wild edible plant walk on the Youghiogheny River Trail in Connellsville, PA. If you were in the neighborhood, you should have stopped by to join us!

Carol did take some amazing photographs, enjoy them and tell a friend!

Enjoying Wood Sorrel.

We all had a blast, taking a short 2 hour walk on the trail, identifying some amazing plants including Garlic Mustard, Ground Ivy, Wild Violets, Jewel Weed, Nettles, Plantain, Dandelions, Wood Sorrel, Red Clover, Tree of Heavan, Sumac,  and Wild Grape.

Yesterday’s Four Favorite Finds included:

The Nettle Patch.

Wild Grape Tendrils and baby leaves which are high in vitamin c and make a great trail nibble..

Red Clover Blossoms which every woman should learn about, they are very tasty too. All you have to do is make tea, or learn the secret method of sucking out their nectar.

Garlic Mustard which is great as a nibble and one of Carol’s favorites to cook with.

Learning edible plants - Enjoying the trail.

And finally Jewel Weed, which is great to neutralize any exposure to poison ivy or the nettle stings.

Tank you , Carol, Jenn, Adrienne, and our very special, tiny little guest you can see below. It was a great afternoon, and introduction to the Native Eyes world.

Your friend and Native Eyes guide,

A very special guest.
