I just got back from teaching at a herb conference in the Kootenays. A special treat was a one day ?foraging? workshop. We harvested herbs and prepared a real feast from the treasures we found. See menu below.

I encourage you to spend time in nature and benefit from the bountiful menu that Mother Earth provides for us. Start ?grazing? and sample the different plants, get to know some of them, be creative and add them to your cooking.

Feel free to share any of your recipes on this page.

Green Blessings,
