Nettles are bursting with vitamins and pretty tasty too.
So what do you do if you have very little land, a thrifty budget and still want to eat super local? Wild edibles can be a great way to go!
By following a few simple rules you can safely harvest a bounty:
- Only eat what you know
- Harvest small amounts
- Don’t harvest near roads or other places pesticides could be sprayed
- Try a small amount of each plant before making a big meal of it, some people are allergic to things they aren’t aware of
This Wild Edible Plants presentation will get you started on your next super local meal.
