Winter greens are in abundance



Hairy Bitter Cress

Took a walk today up the mountain only to find stiff breezes and about a dozen edible wild plants.  As you can tell from previous blogs, I'm a foodie and nothing makes me happier than finding something to eat.  I'll keep the column short today and simply make a list of what you can find in the southern climes just before Thanksgiving.

Onion garlic,
Sorrel
Garlic Mustard
Curly Dock
Dandelion
Acorns
English Plantain
Mt. Mint
Hairy Bitter Cress
Common Mullein

From here you see you can makes yourself a pretty decent meal and what else goes good with a wonderful turkey for this Thanksgiving.... and abundance of wild greens.

Ciao and Buonapetito
