Wild Craft of the Month - First Gatherings

About this time of year the first little Wild food offerings can be found. A small and precious medicine. Cleavers, Ransoms, Dandelion leaves and Hawthorn leaf buds can often be seen now, as well as Primroses, Violets and herbs such as Chives, Marjoram and Buckler’s Sorrel.

These are not the abundant crops that can later be foraged and stored, but baby leaves and flowers rich with promise, even a few tiny leaves and a couple of flowers can make a welcome addition to our salads. They are homeopathic dose of the life force of Spring just bursting through, and our bodies are craving this.
