It's finally springtime here in Michigan, and the spring flowers and blossoms are coming in strong! Did you know that many flowering trees and herbs are not only beautiful, but also edible and medicinal? Many wonderful things can be prepared from them, including delicious edible garnishes for salads and desserts alike, among many other things.

If you have a lawn you don't spray with chemicals and have any of the following plants growing that you don't want, please send me a message (see attached pictures for reference):

-Chicory
-Dandelion
-Ground Ivy (aka Creeping Charley, aka Gill Over the Ground)
-Sweet Violet (very aromatic, akin to an old-fashioned perfume)
-Wild rose

I am also seeking out fruit tree blossoms such as:

-Apple
-Pear
-Peach
-Cherry
-Plum

Please send me a private message here or call/text me at (248) 403-8665. Thank you!!

Wild Grapes—Not just for the birds!

Recognize this wild fruit? Wild grape, an abundant fall fruit, is very similar to it's cultivate cousins in terms of color and form, but differs greatly in terms of flavor and texture. High acidity (most notably tartaric acid, which must be processed out before ingesting) and little flesh makes them a tricky wild edible to process, but worth the efforts when done well.

If you have wild grape on your property in significant quantities, please send me a message, and I'll put the fruits to good use
