Thank you, Sue, for another informative article. Yes, I remember my mother telling us about her mother, an immigrant from Eastern Europe, foraging for certain roots and plants, not only for eating but also for medicinal purposes, incl. the healing of wounds. As a youngster, I was amazed at these stories. Maybe incredulous, as I thought Modern Science knew everything worth knowing.
Now, as I am older, I have an interest to learn more about our past ways. I would like to reclaim this lost knowledge. I agree that many of these plants, which served humans for centuries, and only forgotten in the age of supermarkets, have wonderful healing and health properties.
Yes, it is Time to rediscover what was already known by our ancestors.
Wonderful, Perry, thank you for sharing, what a lovely story. There are so many old recipes to discover that we can try out and add to our repertoire as time goes on. An unfolding journey that will be really fun and interesting. I'm reviewing Food For Free to post next and there are so many wild foods we can eat with only a handful of poisonous things to watch out for. They each have magical things to offer, Mother Nature has thought of everying, it's quite incredible.
