Wild food found on the Farm


Wild Food is all around us.
Food can be foraged in the woods, along the fences, near the creek, down in the pastures,
at the edge of the forest and in the front yard.

Here is a list of wild food I've found, and have eaten, on the Farm
(just gonna list the vegan foods)

Poke sprouts
watercress
leeks
dandelion crowns
chickweed, mustard and other greens
asparagus
KY coffee tree
wild strawberries
blackberry
mushrooms (the morels are called dry land fish)
nuts: hickory, walnut and hazelnut
mulberry
grapes

so, besides heading down to the garden to pick dinner, there is also the choice of
heading into the woods or down to the pastures or over by the creek.



morel mushrooms




wild grapes grow everywhere
there is a tree or a fence
they make great wine

  1. That is so great you have, and found morels! You will have to help us hunt on the farm here in Sequim when you get here.
