That's #2 grandson. They arrived 6 weeks apart. If the kids keep up such productivity, weedom is gonna be wild. 😎

Picking blackberries was one of my favorite pass-times in childhood. However, I would search far and wide breaking the "do not leave the yard" rule.

Blackberries are as tempting as they are nutritious. :-D

Thank you for the advice for drying lemon balm. I reduced the temperature from 170 to 90 and the lemon aroma and taste is in the tea!

In depth and fascinating as always!! These are my daughter’s favourite so it’s nice to have some information if we go picking them.

You could try taking Silicea tissue salt after foraging to help your body expel the tiny hairs of the bush. Up to 4 times a day for up to a week ought to help.

Know what's the worst for tiny hairs? Pole beans, and mine need picking now. It leaves a kind micro fiberglas feeling, and a slight rash. All part of the fun outdoors.
