Puck’s Plenty Foraging: June 9
One of the most healthy plants you can consume is the Nettle. We will be harvesting three types of this amazing species. The Slender Nettle, Wood Nettle and the non-stinging Clearweed. All help to reduce inflammation, lower blood pressure, aid in blood sugar control and are also used to treat Hay Fever. On the culinary side the recipes are endless. Nettle Soup, Nettle Pesto, Nettle Tea and, believe it or not, Nettle Beer to name but a few.
Along the trails we will also be searching for Turkey Tail Mushrooms, Pheasant Back Mushrooms, Wild Watercress and Day Lily Flower Buds.
