  • Hemlock forests are among my favorites to explore. In this video, we take a look at wood nettle (Laportea canadensis), partridge berry (Mitchella repens), reishi (Ganoderma tsugae), white worm coral (Clavaria vermicularis), rattlesnake fern (Botrychium virginianum), black birch (Betula lenta), and chaga (Inonotus obliquus).

      lol I was watching saying the same thing and was going to make a comment about it then read yours. Yea just love listen to him talk and amazed on how well he pronounces the scientific names does not mater how much research I do I can never remember or pronounce most lol. But yea really really enjoy the videos.

      If you spend any time learning about trees and woody plants I guarantee you will learn about chemistry, physics, natural science, a lot of history and folklore and so much more. It's inevitable. I'd recommend Michael Dirrs books to start. They're not light reading but thorough. I used to know much of his books by heart.

    Well done. I live in northern Michigan and this is one of my favorite trees. The dark green hue is so comforting. You really caught me off guard eating the new growth lol. Had no idea it was edible, the smell of crushed hemlock needles is amazing though.

  • @lisabooker6405
    @lisabooker6405 6 лет назад +3

    Adam I’ve gotten so I hurry and try to say the mushrooms before you do to see if I’m picking up on them correctly. Got both of these right, thank YOU sooooo much! Your teachings have really helped me along and I couldn’t be happier.
    I wanted to tell you, I’m growing some wood sorrel in a pot with several other lettuces and such. I shared it with my grandkids and I thought they’d eat it all. LOL I couldn’t believe how much they loved it. I know it’s a simple thing but I’m hoping to encourage their natural curiosity and not have them be so put off by eating natural things and raw. Obviously I’m very careful. They aren’t even allowed to touch a plant (unless in my garden) without my permission. And they’re very good. They stop every time they see something and ask. This has already been a very exciting season. Thank you for all you do. You’re an absolute blessing!!! ~Lisa

    Awesome video Adam! I paused the video when you showed the Hemlock needles and went outside and sure enough my neighbor has them along the fenceline. i was thinking thats what they were, so very cool to know because they are mixed in with the mulberry trees on my side of the fence that I just went out and shook today. Always nice to walk through those beautiful Pennsylvania woods with you. I miss them. When I was a kid I was always in those woods of PA as I lived there in my childhood. I still hang out in the woods as an adult wherever I live tho. My place of peace. Thanks Adam!

    I'm reminded of the time I worked for a tree company and shot hort oil up into the canopies of Hemlocks to combat wooly adelgid. I saved hundreds of Hemlocks from dying over the years.

  • @jojow8416
    @jojow8416 6 лет назад +3

    Years ago, I translated Hemlocks from the forest to my property and for years I've been nipping off the new Spring growth to thicken the foliage on the tree. Wish I had known that I could eat the new growth. Well, since seeing your video, I've been dining on them.
    I love the flavor, to my taste buds it tastes like lime, so I started adding it to my vegan Thai curry dishes and it not only adds flavor, but a nice little crunch. Amazing! Do you know if the older growth is also edible I'm going to gobble all the new growth before long?

    @haggard21077 6 лет назад +2

    Great video man. And what a find with that chaga on a black birch, I've never seen that before, very rare as you said. One cool thing with that nettle is if you do get scratched by it jewel weed is usually near by. Ill just take the stem of jewel weed and squeeze the juices out where I got scratched, within 30 seconds the sting is completely gone. Nature is amazing. Thank you for all your videos. Ive learned so much and I truly appreciate it.

I'm lucky I have the old hard woods and a small Hemlock forest....so much fungi here I can hardly grow grass in the yard😉it's all moss! People want to know why I don't do something about it...lol! I love the mushrooms and moss that grow in the yard. Not to mention.... You have to mow much less with a mossy yard. And it's beautiful!!! Thanks again.... I have a cousin I'm Northern MI, she makes these fungi tinctures 😋😁

    There has been a really huge increase in the capacity of modern laboratories to analyze and test cell lines for beneficial or harmful effects. It is so interesting to watch daily health news to see what is being found out. Oleocanthal, Ashitaba, Yerba Santa, Kolanji, perhaps Canabidiol... Just the last 2 weeks have been astounding. We come to realize how much we have ignored what was put here for us, what our ancestors did for us in preparing us genetically by their treks and testing. If a path-side nibble did not harm them, new compounds created new processes, and the processes led to our existence, perhaps the ability to combat disease or wear and tear, grow stronger, live longer. The complexity of what is around us is quite the frontier.

    Ok so that answers a question I've had for a long time. Black birch can have chaga on it. I'm just north of you in the southern of NY. At my home I have a a large grove of hemlock surround by massive tulip trees, some red and white oak including chinkapin oaks. A few kinds of hickories, black walnuts, striped or moose maple and some sugar and red maples. It's never been logged and there's even some native chestnuts. Pretty cool. I've never cut any trees here precisely because it's unique and untouched timber.

    I usually find Chaga on the north side of local Paper Birch Trees here. It isnt overly common.

      Interesting. I never looked into which side of the tree Chaga typically grows on, though I'll keep that in mind!

    I am thankful the plants in your region are so similar to mine because our states border eachother.
