My brother lives an hour and a half away from me now so it’s nice to catch up on a day off. He lives in a picturesque little town that I love to visit.
Last time I went to visit, we took a walk down a canal road with his dog, Luna. I just cannot look past wild edibles anywhere I go and this day was no different.
There were lots of rose hips and unfortunately, I forgot a jar or bag to collect. The apples were super delicious though. Crab apples or wild apples can be sour and unpalatable or the most incredible unique flavor. I wish more people would be open to trying them. These apples reminded me of a ‘pink lady’ but slightly more floral. We gathered as much as we could fit in my brothers’ backpack.
The Italian plums were a bit mushy with little flavor, but I could have definitely made some kind of jam or filling with them if I had time.
Question: Are you like me and cannot resist the urge to forage or identify wherever you go?
I love getting to know a place by looking around and seeing the familiar “faces” of plant friends! what beautiful pics.
Thanks Crystal! 🙂
