SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH FORAGED FINDS: FIRST FOOD FORAGE OF 2018

Hello, I saw your link in the "sustainable-living" chat channel, so I came here to read the post. It looks like you have a good foraging attitude, not everybody wants to do stuff like that. This helps with being prepared for tough times, no matter the cause.

I'm fairly new to foraging. When I moved to my current place in rural western Missouri, I saw a bunch of cool plants I'd no idea what they were. On Facebook I found a group called missouri mycological society, another called wild edibles of Missouri and then another called native plants of Missouri ( I think). So, in 2016 I began learning what plants were what. I learned that the tiny purple prairie lilacs, chickweed, dandelion, bergamot, wild garlic, yarrow, curly dock, plantain, and a variety of mushrooms were edible. More importantly, plants that were either invasive or poisonous on my property, such as hemlock, winter creeper, and a couple varieties of thistle. It was really facinating to learn how much I had here to eat if I wanted. Also a little terrifying about the poisonous and water hemlock. I have much more to learn. It's a wild meadow here, at least last year as we did not keep sections mowed as usual. Anyway, thanks for checking my post and the comment. Much appreciated
