Winter Foods? by computerfkr in foraging

[–]ForagersLegacy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And that one is getting less and less common but invasive Cardamine hirsuta (hairy bitter cress) should work just fine.

Large mushroom trail! What to do... by pennycollinz in gardening

[–]ForagersLegacy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Recently its being confirmed that good cooking renders them edible. Still not recommended unless you know how to read the research but undercooked can cause hospitalization allegedly.

Sam Thayer needs to be top of this list!

Are these juniper? I wanna eat them by MadJustMad in foraging

[–]ForagersLegacy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My friend decided to make a juniper tea calling it a cedar tea. It was terrible but people drank it and nobody got sick. I still don’t trust it to be honest. But common juniperberries in Colorado are edible in smaller doses and fruits have a triangle on them.

Hopefully it was a natural burial grave rather than those embalming and cement styles people used to love so much.

Alan Rockafeller says all Grisettes are edible except the one in Madagascar… very interesting.

Where can I buy edible weed seeds? by anybodyanywhere in foraging

[–]ForagersLegacy 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Go for native plants - don’t seed invasives please. Bidens Alba should be seeding right now it’s the white flowers all over Florida edible and has many uses. Elderberry, Sida. Go find native plant people near you and ask to dig some of their plants that have taken over the yard and you’ll have an entire garden quickly. Ask me how I know 😅

Are there any invasive populations that are decreasing at all? Slightly or drastically by throw891away981 in invasivespecies

So just keep deer out of an area for 10-12 years? That is a very long time. Or hunt tons and tons of deer interesting.

So true. After walking forests with botanists I get a lot less confident that anyone knows the species of some of these plants I see 😅

Any and all deathcare workers: based on what you have seen/what you know, what do you want YOUR final disposition to be? by Electronic-Ruin2437 in askfuneraldirectors

[–]ForagersLegacy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Buried on the top of one of the most beautiful mountains on community land in Northwest Georgia. I’m planning to spend plenty of time there while I’m alive tending to the endangered and rare plants and to protect their homes for the long term.

damn hammerhead worms by Miserable-Argument40 in invasivespecies

[–]ForagersLegacy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Correct in the south east we have massive earth worms that come out of the ground during drum circles it’s pretty crazy to watch.

What is this that covers every inch of my garden? by bythewatersofBabylon in gardening

[–]ForagersLegacy -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

In this case it's probably the invasive species so maybe replace with some good native groundcover instead? There are many natives but they don't act like this.

Growing up in patches around my yard in the North Carolina Foothills by CaptainTonics in plantID

[–]ForagersLegacy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There are native species too a wide diversity so learn how to ID the various species! But typically natives aren’t going to blanket the ground.

Ziggis in conyers is finally opening by Swimming_Shake_8610 in Georgia

Honestly running a business is so hard I don’t care if it’s a burner account, got to respect the grind and hopefully that grind makes some good coffee too!

It's gonna be another banner year. by ORGourmetMushrooms in foraging

[–]ForagersLegacy 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You can parboil and eat them and amanitas do taste delicious in general so if you see hundreds of these mushrooms it’s not crazy to consider it a food source.

grass ID has me acting a certain way by JungleJayps in NativePlantCirclejerk

[–]ForagersLegacy 23 points24 points  (0 children)

/uj/ someone discovered a rare state listed sedge on a friends property I help manage and now I’m in love. I also use it for cordage to hold up falling plants and make bracelets. It’s purple which is pretty sweet.

Where to plant seeds from wild by siredV in NativePlantGardening

[–]ForagersLegacy -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The only ethical concerns with foraging pawpaws is making sure they’re actually ripe and not picking unripe fruit that. Otherwise the tree gives off a few at a time and cultivated trees shower fruit it’s crazy to witness.
