I've bought a couple of books on food in the wild, and I'm enjoying my first, very tentative, forays into foraging. By which I mean, I went walking and picked some elderflowers for cordial! Cordial is infusing nicely, and smells divine.
Today I went out and got comfrey for making healing salve, and what I think is a type of mint, but I'm going to google it in a minute to be on the safe side.
I'm really looking forward to seeing how much we can get from foraging (while obviously not taking too much and ruining the countryside!) - green and low cost!
Anyone else?
