- In this video we go through thirty six wild edibles and medicinal plants in fifteen minutes. There a lot of different plants to learn and you never know what wild edibles or medicinal plants will be around the corner. Plants like Garlic Mustard, Chickweed, Boneset, Trilliums, Violets, Black Eyed Susan, Wild Carrot, and many more can be found easily. We will cover some of the uses of the edible plants and medicinal plants as well a talk a bit about their habitat and what they look like. Sometimes there are areas where the are plants that are both edible and medicinal so it's important to learn as many as you can so you don't pass anything up while foraging in the wild.
Plants like the large Trillium are uncommon and should generally be left alone, where as plants like the Black Eyed Susan are regularly found in gardens and parks. The uses of these plants an range from inflammation, pain, poison ivy, salads, teas, cooked greens and more. In a place you might find wild edibles like the violet you might also find the stinging nettle or wood nettle. Then some spice bush twigs could be gathered for tea. The diversity of wild edibles and medicinal plants is truly show in this fifteen minute video.

This video contains a mistake on wild lettuce. IT DOES NOT CONTAIN OPIATES. This mistake was made by my using outdated information, and has been corrected in newer videos talking about this plant. I sincerely apologize for any confusion this may have caused.
It would be great if you’d use the plant names though out your info. We aren’t always keyed in to hear until we hear what their uses are; we keep listening hoping you will repeat the names. Saying “this plant” is not quite as helpful as saying the name repetively as we learn by repetition. Thanks!
You missed a plant it's the one with the purple/brown spear head on its leaf facing the top
I saw that to its related to pa smartweed
Trillium: Wild Edibles since its has a mistake and most people do not read the comments this video needs to be removed.
No your comment needs to be removed . Study to be quiet
Please go into more detail on one plant at a time so we know how to use it and how to identify it
I really appreciate videos like this that do not go into exhaustive descriptions of each plant's ID. Many of us know the plants and just want to know their uses.
I am with you, it is going a bit fast for me, like his said the wild lettuce has distinct leaves then went straight to another plant without sharing the characteristics to look out for
Thats what i was going to comment and say. He moved thru way too fast and not much info is been given on the plants
This is a video made to highlight over 30 plants. Write them down then look up individual videos and research on them. He gave us the list...
@@davidbrogan606 5
Thanks for the info! This is the kind stuff the educational system should focus on! Teach kids about the real world around them!
As a fellow forager I enjoyed your video, especially how you show people how densely everything grows together. There's a garden beneath our feet, we just need to stop mowing it.
It pisses me off how our nazi government forces everyone to mow their yards.
They can't make money off us if we know how to support ourselves.
Don' forget to warn people about dangerous lookalikes! Like Poisonous Hemlock! Sometimes mistaken for wild carrot or yarrow.
I have a whole video about those look a likes on my channel.
But they don't look alike at all
Thank you .
My first look is he sure queen anne's lace or hemlock.
I sure hope others read your comment.
At first glance the bloom of the hemlock and queen Anne's lace do look alike. If you dont know what to look for it could be mistaken. Ex. Fury stem, tiny purple flower in the middle and the tiny spiked stems that lay around right below the bloom all signs for the Queen. Bare stem, purple blotches on stem for hemlock. Hemlock grows much taller than queen Anne's lace. So yes when in doubt dont mess with them. Always be informed before eating any plant. There is no known antidote for the toxins produced by hemlock. This plant can lead to renal failure, respiratory failure even death
I sure wish that you would make a video about these wild herbs, I trust you. Thank you for speaking out. Iam trying to learn what is safe to harvest for ingestion
Ive been harvesting and studying wild plants for 50 years.This is absolutely excellent quick study vid on various wild plants.
It is not excellent, as it is much too fast and general for people to follow.
Be careful with wild carrots, they can look very similar to poison hemlock to the untrained eyes.
I read the queen annes lace (wild carrot) has a purple dot on its crown
They also smells like carrots when you pull it up by the root.
Poison hemlock has red spots on the stem
Hemlock flowers look similar but they grow in sparatic clusters versus a semi rounded top of flowers...plus Wild Carrot has a Purple/Red Dot in the center.
Wow I thought they were the same. Thanks for the insight.
Nature is incredible isn't it? This is awesome
Indiana seems to be one of the most prolific areas for wild plants for food and medicine. I am sure there are many of them here in New England that I have not had a chance to encounter. Thank you for this quick overview of the wonderful plants the Lord has created for our use.
I don't know about Indiana being the most prolific, most places in the United States are jam packed full of wild edibles and medicinal plants. However the species and varieties may change or be completely different, New England is rather rich in edible and medicinal plants, however there is kind of a trade off in the sense that some plants I might have you might not have up there and vice versa. Indiana does have a lot of varied habitats in small areas and in other parts of the country growth patterns of the same plant might be different. Just look around and be resourceful, Google Earth is also a great place to look for the right kinds of habitats also!
You're very welcome, and thanks for commenting Garland!
Very good enthusiasm, but it would have been better to spend more time with the plants. It's not helpful to folks to point at a plant and say it is edible without explaining what part is good to eat or cautions on the time of year to harvest. For example you gave no warnings about the toxins in Jack-in-the-Pulpit. I'm glad you enjoy the wild edibles and that you are spreading the fun we can all have with them. It is important that we all provide accurate information. - Kathy D.
Like I've said before on this video to other commenters, this videos purpose was to show the number of plants that are available, and not for specific uses of them. On the videos I do that are specific to a plant I cover that kind of info. Thank you for the feedback and comment Red Fern Farm!
I was worried about noobs recklessly foraging because of the lack of info on poison lookalike plants like hemlock and the queen anne's lace shown, or as you point out choosing the wrong part of the plant to consume. The only warning was of mosquitoes.
It's a brief overview. U dolt
Well why don’t you do it then arm chair critic?
It's not all on him. Don't put pressure on him. We, as foragers, should learn about plants and their benefits in differenr books, video etc. Not just from one video. It's not his obligation to teach you everything you need to know. That's on you.
Thanks to you Josh your contagious excitement has me collecting wild edibles again
So many of these plants were eaten or used by me and my Family when I was a kid. I didn't remember all of them but you have been a big help. I used to love helping my mother pick wild greens In the early spring. I Always love the flavor of the tasty Greens cooked with a little butter and salt.
Thank you, I'm glad you're finding this helpful! Reconnecting with our families and at a greater sense, reconnecting with our past is extremely important and fulfilling. Thanks for commenting!
Thank you SO MUCH! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🥰🥰🥰🥰. MORE MORE MORE. PLEASE MORE VIDEOS!!!!
Very useful information. Thank you very much for this video. :)
Awesome info thanks for sharing. 👍👏❤️
I was @ my friend's house, he had Elderberries growing in his backyard. I asked him if they knew what they were, I told him they were a medicinal plant... He thought it wasn't in his interest he was going to mow it down! Thanks to him just listening my friend now has a new way to look @ the way his Father looked @ the Land.
So much to learn! So little time! Thanks for the great instructional videos!!!
There is a lot to learn, but there is also a lot of time to learn it, no rush! You're very welcome Rich, glad they are helping you!
A note about jewelweed, this plant really shines as a treatment for nettle stings and in my area they grow in the same habitat.
My story, I got a pretty good nettle sting by accidentally grabbing one. It was hurting pretty bad, ruining my day, and I remembered about jewelweed. I only had to look for 5 mins and I found some plants. What you want is the juice, so I took a handful of leaves and rolled them between my hands, really beating it up. Once it started to feel wet from the juice, I put it on the nettle sting. I did not expect this to work as well as it did, almost immediately I felt the pain subsiding. I kept working the leaves, rolling them, and tearing at them, getting more juice and applying it, and unbelievably it nearly cured my sting, afterwards, all that was left of the pain was a slight tenderness to the skin, almost nothing.
I don't think I'd use it for poison ivy, since that's an oil, best thing is dawn dish soap, maybe after that it might help. But it works like magic on a nettle sting
Your knowledge of plants is incredible
This is amazing! Thanks for covering everything in a broad sweep, informative and interesting, leaving plenty of information for researching more on each item on our own. THANK YOU AGAIN! Excellent vid.
I am learning a lot about medicinal plants through your channel, keep it up.
Thanks. I know some planys from growing up, so much to still grasp.
very important knowledge thank you for passing down the knowledge they healthy
Raspberry, Blackberry, Strawberry, or Rose, Leaves make EXCELLENT Tea!
Yes they do, thanks for sharing that guloguloguy!
Yes. Strawberry leaf especially
Strawberry leaves must be used completely dry or extremely fresh. Wilted strawberry leaves are toxic due to a change in chemical compound while in between fresh and drying stages. Consumption of tea made from wilted strawberry leaves can cause vomiting and uncomfortable nausea.
@@jeanbarraza5433 , tq, that is clear cut advice.
Don't forget Mulberry
This is a nice overview, bout go and research each plant before consuming. I have tons of this stuff on my farm near "Mayberry" NC.
Absolutely wonderbar
Nice to learn a little about some of these plants. Thanks.
Thanks for posting! I appreciate you sharing your knowledge with us!
You're welcome!
Great! Lots of information. Thanks for the share. Cheers!
You're very welcome!
Thank you this video is helping me identify some of these plants around me. I've been using books too.
I am from Northwest Indiana and I love your videos. Amateur Mycologist and amateur botanist. I would love to get a hold of you and check out some plants in the great Midwest.
Wow! I learned so much! Thank you for making it!
Great video I have many of these plants on my property in Oregon
Nice to hear from someone that doesn’t react to poison ivy.
Thankyou for sharing this fascinating information. I realise that this is just a brief introduction to the variety of wild plants around us & that it is essential to check out further information about identifcation, cautions, & precautions, which parts are edible & when & how to prepare them for safety.
Please can you translate to Arabic language this information about plants and its benefits 🌹thanks for your help
Please do a video in how to use each plants and describe what they’re good for.
By the way, I love the fall solomon plants. They’re so so good. Can’t wait for it to grow. It’s my mom’s favorite.
Hey I live in Indiana and have been looking for videos like this that shows these kinds of plants in my neck of the woods thanks so much it was really helpful
Glad to be of some help!
I’d love to hear this when you take longer to cover the vast amount of necessary information on medical applications
That's awesome! Ang they're free!
I really appreciate videos like this that do not go into exhaustive descriptions of each plant's ID. Many of us know the plants and just want to know their uses.
Then you risk being poisoned by look alikes.
@@seeker4827 No, we already know the plants. We just want to know their uses. There are other videos for beginners.
@ David Brogan I have videos like that available too for anyone interested.
@ seeker I have very many in depth identification videos available on my channel for anyone wanting to dig deeper.
Thanks for great information. It would help if we knew how to prepare these plants for the many different uses.
Great overview. looking forward to watching more detailed videos.
Thanks Lauren!
I love the speed of this! Just what I was looking for.
Awesome, I'm glad you found what you were looking for!
Would be helpful if you explained how to prepare or use these plants.
Great Video, Thanks
I love eating green milkweed seeds pods.
Apart from the uniqe look and structure, Milkweed seed pods are edible as long as its still green, open it and ear the inside it tastes like cucumber .
This was one of the best informative wild edibles I have ever seen. Well done!
Thank you so much! Feel free to check out my other videos, you might enjoy them as well!
We need someone to teach us how to tell the difference between good plants and bad ones
Get a book or plant app this guy leaves a lot out. And called toxic plants edible.
This video is just an overview of what can be available, not for in depth information. I have more detailed videos on almost every plant in this video.
If you think a plant that has poison in the name is edible, well...
Wow! What a great informational video. Thanks
You're very welcome, thanks for commenting Amanda!
Thank you so much. I am very interesting in learning how to recognize wild edible, and what to avoid.
Well you're in the right place for that Linda! I have many videos on wild edibles and medicinal plants that may be of some help to you. Thanks for commenting!
Well you're in the right place for that Linda! I have many videos on wild edibles and medicinal plants that may be of some help to you. Thanks for commenting!
Thank U so much for all your videos. This is a great service U are providing.
Thank you so much, I try my best! I appreciate your kind words, they really mean a lot to me!
Hey brother I appreciate your videos and keep up the great work but I have to put a correction in it: that wild lettuce actually contain no opium. Unlike it’s common name opium lettuce it actually contains no opium, it works on your central nervous system to calm your nerves, help with pain ( much better than opium) and help with sleep and swelling. Ty!
When I make a tea with it, it dries up your sinuses! In my apartment building, a bunch of people could fight there horrible sinus issues! Not Even 1 had to go to the hospital! 🥳🎉
I love this! Thank you for making this video.
I really enjoyed this video I wish I knew how to I.d. all this food and medicine
Glad you enjoyed it Kevin! It takes some time to learn it all, took me years to get to this point and I'm still learning new plants every week. Spending time outdoors with the plants and field guides will take you a long way in learning all these plants. Thanks for commenting!

Thank you for sharing ❤️ God Bless
What fun! Here in Florida we have a similar green briar, called cat briar. They are a butterfly host plant. You eat the newly grown tips, taste like asparagus. You can use the root ball to make root beer. Also our plantains have no leaves, but are little short lumpy "fingers", maybe 5" long, covered with tiny nodules (seeds?)...I'll have to check on edibility. You showed cat tails---are they edible? Thanks, highly enjoyable, very clear well made video. Well done!
Thanks worm wood glad you liked it! You might check out Greene Deans website if you haven't already, he lives in Florida and might have covered the plantains you have down there. Oh yeah the cattails are edible there are at least 1 part that is edible at any given time of the year. The young shoots can be peeled and eaten, the root can be roasted and then eaten, avoid eating the stringy part, the root can be made into a flour, the immature flower spike of male cattails can be cooked and eaten like a corn on the cob, and the mature spikes releasing pollen can be used as a flour too. Just a quick rundown but I hope it helps a bit. Thanks for asking and commenting!
Thank you for sharing 🌱
You're welcome, thanks for commenting!
Wow really cool that you know the weeds. I enjoyed watching the video. Keep it up. 👍👍
That is an amazing amount of knowledge there. Thanks for sharing. Only think that could use a little help is speed and zoom. There was some very fast talking at times and plants I really wanted to see, but wasn't sure which one of what was shown was the plant. Over all great though. Thanks!!!
My hands were, for the most part, on every plant I was talking about or I was pointing at it. There may have been a few points where I did not. I might have some other videos on the plants you want to know about on the channel. If not I can always tell you what I know, and don't know about any plant in the video.
It does move really fast, but these are clips from older videos that I condensed down for this video. In each one of these I move pretty fast as well, because the point of them was to emphasize how much is available that we walk right by and don't notice. I have tried to improve the speed of speech and making clear what I'm talking about in my newer videos filmed with my DSLR, instead of a camcorder. Like all of these clips were. The camcorder keeps a lot in focus where as the DSLR blur helps keep the subject or plant in focus. My apologies for a long response but I hope that helps and thanks for the feedback Dagmar!
I suggest you say the name of the plant thru out your info instead of saying repeatedly “this plant” as we are not always keyed in at the beginning when you identify the plants, but upon hearing their uses wish you’d use their names more than at the beginning. Thanks for the great info!
Very useful video, thank you very much. Everyone, please give her a like!
This video is really good bro. So much information in here. Did you know that eating morning glory seeds causes intense visual hallucinations? Just thought I'd share that. Especially the "heavenly blue" variety of morning glories. I hope to find a trillium plant in my area so I can send you pictures of it, lol. I'm excited to show you what I find in my forest.
I thought staghorn had the serated leaves and the red berry clusters. Good content.
What you are doing in this video is what I do when I am out on walks or in somebodies back yard.
You are amazing buddy!
Bees love jewelweed. People make soap from jewelweed. The popping seed, the inside seed, reportedly tastes like walnuts and is edible.
Great video again.
Great information, it's so funny that how I was a city girl & have not ideas about plants, trees, fruits beside getting them from supermarkets & only know basic about them and now I'm so into wild plants/ tree & it's used. I live in Milton Massachusetts and looking to learn/ join the wild plants club, if anyone knows anything about wild plants, leaves, trees and their benefits please open a club. I live not too far from blue hill hiking trails& it has so plants, trees& flowers but I don't know anything about them. I rather spend a day in the wood than in the city that's how much I love nature. Thanks
YOU and me BOTH.
Woodlands, Wilderness, Marshland Etc. & the amounts of LIFE they contain, is literally MIND - BLOWING.
Lived in Towns throughout my life - was ALWAYS on the •WANDER• Becoming more & more Surprised that there's so much of Interest in these Natural Habitats .
I've always believed that if you are interested in THAT certain Subject ▪︎ You WILL Learn, Much easier than if the Subject literally BORES YOU to TEARS.
Fabulous! Thx.
The Trillium is a protected plant. Do not pick it or eat it unless you are in a life or death situation.
Absolutely Aaron thank you for mentioning that! In the video that clip came from that was mentioned and I thought I left it in here, but guess I didn't. Thanks again.
lol
I have quite a few trillium where I live. I would never pick one. So beautiful.
By whom is it protected and just what does that mean?
Aaron Bloodgood the Trillium maybe endangered somewhere but I can Harvest literally thousands and thousands of pounds of it and not even touch even closed to what's near just right down the road not to mention everywhere else it literally grows almost everywhere probably 30 or 40 miles around my house and I don't want and I think it tastes like crap
Thanks, would you please help to show how to make balm's and salves;)
Curious about the wild lettuce plants. Dont they produce milky sap when they are seeding or just after flowering? If leaves were to be picked when tender and before plant flowers could it be eaten raw? Have you roasted dandelion root to make coffee? Is it good?
Amazing stuff!!! Helping me build my land. HUGS
The yellow coneflower is NOT a hybrid, it's gray-headed coneflower (Ratibida pinnata).
Yeah, I learned that a few months after filming this video, unfortunately.
Enjoyed your video. Do you by any chance give walking tours where we can see these plans up close and touch them. I have always been interested in the plant life and their uses. I also live in northwest Indiana right on Lake Michigan. If you offer classes I would be interested.
100,000 views!! You guys are awesome as can be! Thank you for all the support you have shown!
Any clue how long
Google been around.
When you lean how to use .Just hope you dont poison your self.
There was an herbalist gardener who told me a trick so as to not dramatically harm yourself when learning to work with medicinals and he said something like, rub it on you skin to see if you had a reaction, if not then try touching your tongue with it...and I think there were a few other steps before you actually ingest it. Any idea what the list may have been?
@@chatryna "Universal edible test" look it up at that description. Its 8 mins or so for each test. Rub look for skin irritation, place between lips notice any sensations and obvious. Chew dont consume. If still doing well swallow. For each part of plant flower, leaf, stem, root. Something like that.
Great video. Loved the up close view of these plants.
Awesome, glad you liked it Amanda, thanks for commenting!
Always interested in edible plants, especially medicinal ones. How about a video on edible mushrooms., I live in Florida, the central part and near a freshwater river. There are plenty of goodies in the wild around here but I am still a novice in the finding of them and can use help in that direction. Thank you for your video, sort of makes me want to venture up to Indiana. Peace be with you.
I've done a few videos on wild mushrooms before but not very many. Where I live isn't really the greatest for mushroom hunting per se so it's pretty difficult to make videos on them, unfortunately.
Thank YOU
GOSH... Thank you for making this video. I really enjoy this because IA part of my childhood I lived in & around Indiana, Tennessee, and Kentucky where I learned a lot about some of the plants you showed here. Our Great-great Grandmother was a Shamen for a Cherokee Tribe in Kentucky and she lived to 106. The Spotted Touch Me Not is something I saw when living in Georgia. I had no idea what it was yet guessed it had great qualities. So neat to see what it is now. Loved seeing Jack In The Pulpit right away. I live in Colorado and haven't seen that plant in so long. COOL~!!!
Awesome to hear Feile, glad you found this video entertaining and enjoyable! Thank you for your comment!
This was a great overview inspiring me and driving a desire to share. I look forward to your subscription. I don't see anyone disputing your work but only craving more, and in depth. Kudos. and thank you for sharing your knowledge.
You're very welcome and I'm glad you enjoy it! I look forward to having you here, thanks for commenting!
My same sentiments! Would you know if most of these plants are in the Northwest - Vancouver, BC area? This video is sending me to online to know more about them!
This was great even though I cringed when you were holding poison ivy. you're lucky that you aren't allergic to it.
Lol, I'm glad it helped you out a bit. With as much as I walk through it, I'm REALLY lucky...otherwise I probably couldn't do these kinds of videos. Thanks for commenting JR's Place!
I'm not allergic as well.. the only plants that irritate me is Itch Weed or Fire Weed. Idk the proper name to it.
great video thank you for your knowledge and expertise I can't wait to see the next one I'm always looking to learn something new
You're very welcome Kevin glad they are helping you out! The videos should start coming out again sometime soon!
Hey! I just found you on BillieBird's channels. I'm happy I did. I'm always amazed when I look around and see how many useful plants are so easy to access.
Awesome to hear! The abundance can be truly overwhelming, thanks for commenting!

I live on 37 acres 36 wild, I'd love to have someone out to show me these medicinal and edible flowers. How to conserve protect and help keep wild species alive.
Where do you live?
@@sassie-leighperry-fowler1272 Kentucky
There's probably a native species plant distributor for your area. This stuff really took off nicely about ten years ago, and I had more than a few options for where I am.
It's not a perfect solution, but there's an app for your phone called "Picture This" it's free, but also has a subscription service.
The AI photo identification and diagnosis tool is very cool
@@WaterproofSoap Already have it. But thank you. Doesn't give enough medicinal info.
Were do you forage for wild edibles trails someone's land? Can you also show us how to use certain plants medicinally. Did you learn everything you know about wild edibles or medicinals from just books because you go in depth. Maybe a video on wild teas. Good video
I forage a multitude of places, really it just depends on what I'm foraging and the legalities and rules that I have to abide by where I'm foraging. State Forests and local parks have different rules than private land, and only certain things can be gathered. This video for example was actually filmed in three different spots, private land, state forest land, and a local park.
My preferred foraging habitat, if you will for myself is my yard, or far off trail and miles from any road or recent human interference but often times what I gather is from one of the three places mentioned above.
I will work on adding more plants and how to use medicinally, however usually when I need to use them the last thing on my mind is filming it, though I'm working on that! lol.
I learned by experience, books, and videos. mother Nature has been my teacher and for close to 5 years I only had two books on the subject and UA-cam. MiWilderness channel and his older videos, along with NativeSurvival, wildernessoutfitters, etc. are where I picked other things up. It's just important to try out each thing you see for yourself to gain experience. Plus when you spend close to 40 hours a week in the woods it's easy to gain experience.
I will work on doing more videos on wild teas, out in the wild too! Thanks for commenting and asking AmateurChemist I hope that answered your questions, if you have any more don't be afraid to ask!
💚Brother, your content is top-notch! I'm a fellow forager with a small channel, and I genuinely look up to you. Your dedication and talent are evident, and I'm excited to see what you'll create next. Keep shining and inspiring others!
I've hear of Sorrel Soup. Know how , too. I'm so allergic to poison ivy. My Grandfather always said quinine is good for sinus trouble.
@6:20 that's also known as gray headed coneflower! Just foraged some today :)
You are such a wealth of knowledge and I love the way you put out the information ... also much thanks for the useful links below; ;D
Absolutely Jeannie, you're very welcome and thank you!
You are Awesome and this was an Awesome Video!...Thanks for sharing so much knowledge...however I do not even know where to begin in remembering all of that so I was wondering if you have ever considered writing a Book or Guide with Great Pictures that people can take out in the woods to Scout out Wild Edibles!...Your video's are Amazing and I know a book by you would be just as amazing!...Just an Idea!...Peace Love and "LIGHT" 2U!...
too quik to talk & move on w/o describing WHAT parts edible & how to prep ; what, leaves only ?
no roots ?
The point of this video is to show that many plants can be used, not to show how to use them. I have other videos that discuss uses on most of the plants in this video. Thanks for commenting saemus!
I really appreciate videos like this that do not go into exhaustive descriptions of each plant's ID.
Queen Anne’s makes a great jelly that helps with allergies but puck while the center is still red. Trillium grows like ground cover in NE Ct
Wild lettuce does not contain opiates! It has an opiod effect in larger doses, but does not require boiling like poke salat. It is not poisonous if taken appropriately. Always refer to several texts and knowledgeable wild foragers before ingesting any wild plants that you do not know. You may find that some wild medicinals and edibles should not be eaten/taken with some medications also. Educate yourself before running out to gather and use these plants!
You're right, I did not know that at the time of filming this video, but I have corrected this mistake in a couple newer videos. Thank you for commenting!
Definitely be aware of other vitamin or plants... passion flowers and Encinitas are not compatible with benzos (anxiety meds) or metroprolol( beta blocker for heart rhythm)
We need to go for a nature walk together!
I'm ready for the Zombie Apocalypse now.
thanks, i wish I could recognize and memorize this
Great informative video, especially since it sounds like you are finding these plants in Indiana? Which many look familiar to me. Ive always had a fascination with this and trying to expand my knowledge of whats around me. Still really new to it though and will have to look through your vids.
Yep, all in Indiana, all my vids are. Well except for the one in the smoky mountains anyway.
Trillium: Wild Edibles Nice, that will be helpful for me then. I live in Indy now but used to live in Fountain County which is mostly all central Indiana. Do you have any mushroom videos where you id and do spore prints? I have found a couple vids of where you found some walking but none really mushroom directed, granted I haven't been through all your vids since I just found your channel last night.
I have a video on doing spore prints and how to do them, I didn't I.D. the mushroom in the video as it was one I still wasn't sure of at the time but the process of spore printing is covered in it. The video is here if you're interested: ua-cam.com/video/f9C99HHw9Ew/v-deo.html
What area of Indiana? Are you in Hoosier National or private land? Do you do nature style hikes?
I'm in the central portion of the state in between Bloomington and Indianapolis. I do nature hikes and foraging classes. The info can be found on my website if you are interested. www.trilliumwildedibles.com/
