field notes from foraging w @wildmansteve @ prospect park
🌿 violet - 5 petals with a bushy stamen & heart-shaped leaves, pretty lil edible garnish
🌿 garlic mustard - grows in a circular "rosette", smells delicious
🌿 common spicebush - yummy twig to chew, make tea w the yellow flowers, eat its red berries in the fall
🌿 goutweed - tea can be used to treat gout flare-ups! goats used to eat this in the park
🌿 english ivy - steep this overnight in water to make a laundry detergent
🌿 mugwort - silvery underbelly, put this under your pillow for vivid dreams, used in TCM to treat indigestion, stress, anxiety, and probably all your other issues
🌿 burdock - aka gobo is full of vitamins, tastes like a mix of potato and artichoke when cooked
🌿 daylily - double-planed leaves, small ones are tastier, has a flower that blooms one day a year
🌿 field garlic - yummy grass, watch out for the poisonous look-alike that has a wider flat leaf and a white stripe
🌿 redbud - sweet & sour flowers make a pretty addition to salads, young pods can be eaten like snow peas
🌿 kentucky coffee tree - fragrant caffeine-free substitute
