Today my dreams of foraging have come true. i was walking around campus and admiring the flowers and the trees with full blooms. There are cherry blossoms behind my house and trees with flowers in full bloom everywhere! So I was walking around campus and discovered a huge group of dandelion. The flowers and leaves were 3-4 inches long and two inches wide. I crouched down and gathered them in my hand. I foraged about I'd say enough to fill both hands. I looked along the grass and discovered there is dandelion everywhere! I felt a sense of relief and pride. It makes me feel even more connected to life. Abundance is all around. Food is everywhere. I remember while I was growing up in the suburbs of Virginia people looked at dandelion as such a nusance and killed them with chemicals. So sad for them.
I brought the dandelion leaves home and noticed that it's not as bitter as the organic kale, collards and swiss chard. As much as I love those greens particularly kale, dandelion is the best tasting. It is sweet and flavorful and not as bitter. My dad liked it too so I plan on continueing my foraging of dandelion and in the process I'll save so much money by not having to spend as much on greens. I also plan on planting dandelion as well.
Thanks for spreading your passion and zest for life all around.

Talk about liberation. When you can go out into the world and find
your own food without using the money of the system...
when you can feed yourself from the earth without their
supermarkets and farming and packages...
Thats REAL freedom.
Forget about the Yankee Doodle Dandy crap we've been fed
for all of our lives. As long as we depend on the system for food,
they have us totally trapped. We must become smarter animals.
Here are some more pics from a recent Central Park Wild Food Walk.
Word to the wise...watch out for the condom wrappers while
foraging in the parks. I didnt even notice that one between
my legs until I looked at the picture later.
Oh well...cant blame people for wanting to do it in nature again!
Just pick up your wrappers people!!! And your condoms! EWWWW!
I did NOT eat this mushroom...Im not qualified at identifying them yet.
Wild Green Salad with some orange peppers and onions. YUM! FUN!
Make it FUN!! If its not fun...its not worth doing.
Raw food is worth doing, but in order to stick with it early on,
you've got to figure out how to make it fun.
Raw chocolate and wild food foraging are two VERY good ways
to do just that. Its all a big game...make it fun.
