- Hey guys in the 5th video field guide to wild edibles and medicinal plants we will discuss the identification of 7 common wild edibles and 1 very popular edible mushroom. In this guide you will learn how to identify plants like Common Milkweed, Broad Leaf Dock, Garlic Mustard, Yellow Trout Lilly, Wild Carrot, and Chicken of the Woods mushroom. Each identification is in depth and covers all of the important features of each plant. In some cases we will lightly discuss the uses of these plants as well. Over the years I have covered many plants on this channel and these video field guides serve as a place for people to find multiple plants in one video.
I hope you enjoyed it and I hope you learned something. If you want to learn more about wild edibles or medicinal plants make sure to subscribe!

I like how you get right to the detail and plant. A lot of creators waste time talking/ introduction.
Hey Josh, Great to see you posting a very long comprehensive video with such detail. This is the amazing wild edible content that no one is making on RUclips but you. These are important characteristics that many need to know and hopefully beginners will learn all the many ways of identifying wild plants through watching this and gain some confidence. So please never stop what you are doing, you are opening the eyes of many who do not know.
I live in a area that has a serious garlic mustard problem. For the last couple years I’ve been harvesting the seeds. I actually do use them as a condiment. They make a wonderful spicy mustard. I just grind them in a mortar and add vinegar or kraut juice. I recommend it!
Doesn't sound like a problem
I'm helping my aunt in her garden we are pulling chickweed milkweed and dandilion. She gets her day lilies and roses cleared and I get the ingredients for my medicines. It's a win win
You should keep milkweed for the monarch butterflies and dandelions for the bees.
Where do I start on learning herbal medicines?
@@lonewanderer1328 I got started from learning from the old timers and buying vintage herbal books in old bookstores bit there's a Dr marajah McCain in Arkansas who teaches a class she's quite helpful if she still around I took her class back in 02 I believe
I saw a field of wild carrots out in the country one time. I thought they look pretty and so I took one plant home and started in a corner of my yard :) It started spreading quickly to cover that whole corner.
Thank you
Josh Thank You I Really Enjoyed This Video.
You share your knowledge and are truly a gift to me. Thank you, so much, for your dedication and beautiful spirit.
The photography is very sharp and similar to life. The discussion is very thorough.
TY FOR ALL UR KNOWLEDGE N TEACHING US SO MUCH
Hello, this is a great video. Thanks. I especially like how you get the plants at different distances and angles. It is good to get video of the plants from a distance since as you are walking that is what you will be looking at mostly.
Great to see you again!!
Awesome stuff! Thanks!
Thank you for sprouting in me an intimate love, interest and time with plants! Getting kids into it every chance possible. (Short but focused attention spans :) and memories of a whale! Our future!) Awesome work. Keep em coming! Keep us sprouting! lol
Your HD videos are the first ones that made me happy I upgraded my bandwidth. The photography is amazing. Thank you so much for all the time you put into this project. It's an amazing resource for the community,
Thank you so much and I'm glad you're enjoying them.
Definitely the best videography for ID that I’ve seen.
🌲🍀☔🌄 Thank you from the base of the thumb of Michigan ❣️
It's early May, and so exciting to start enjoying Mother Nature's bounty!
This is my first visit to your channel. You do a wonderful job for all the reasons expressed on these comments. I love when you mention the lovely scent of plants like Queen Anne's Lace. In helping to shelter the Monarch Butterfly 🦋🐛from egg to adult, I discovered the intoxicating scent of Milkweed blossoms. Just beautiful!! A wonderful plant that should be given a place of honor in every garden❣️
Also glad to hear that certain mushrooms help us make the transition to becoming vegetarians!
Hello ,Thank you ,for your detailed description of these wonderful Plants ,do not want to cut the yard this spring ,so beautiful .
Always enjoy watching your video's. Thank you!👍❤
Love your channel!
Thank you for your thorough explanation of these plants. I've yet to be able to find garlic mustard, although I will keep trying. Can you identify the ant to the right when you are showing the garlic mustard? I've tried, but cant find the info. . . Unless it's a carolina geranium. Dont think do, though. Once again, many thanks.
Milkweed is so beautiful! I wish I could get it to grow in my yard. A few years ago I came across a bunch of humming bird moth around common milkweed at a local park.
I have a shallow pond where the deep end of my pool used to be and cattails have moved in big time, but no milkweed, sadly. I planted some butterfly weed a few seasons ago in another area and it comes back every year, but has not spread or reseeded.
I'd be happy to send you seed!!!!
@@kleineroteHex that is so kind and generous of you. Thank you so much, but I have collected and planted seed a few times and it doesn’t grow. I’m not sure why.
@@tagladyify strange, I started with 3 plants, one died but the other 2 took and have spread all over, mostly by root I try to get all the seed heads before they open or my whole garden will be nothing but milkweed. I like them just not THAT much. Have you tried different locations? Mine are pretty much in full sun.
@@kleineroteHex I tried near my pond and it is full sun. They will have to compete with the cattails there, but there is room enough. When do you plant them? I’m sure they likely need a cold time for the seeds to sprout?
Oh milkweed smells amazing!!! Unfortunately it spreads where I do not want it😊 and I cut the seed buds off, but they do spread by root as well.
I grind my dock seeds husk and all!
I have yet to find mushrooms, especially chicken of the woods!!!
I've found most edible mushrooms - even the blue lactaria - but, never chicken of the woods. that was in the s.e. USA. oh, no morels, there, either - but I never looked in pastures, only in the woods.
You have wonderfully helpful videos! Thank you so much!
Thank you for your steadfast effort to describe the plants nature woodlands your enthusiasm is appreciated your vast knowledge is amazing. I’m barely getting started with my strong desire to learn this wonderful resource
Thank you for this channel!
Dang man, almost made a feature-length film here. Filled with info, thanks!
Excellent video! Thank you.
I have really been enjoying your videos and learning a lot about foraging. Your style makes the information very clear and understandable. Thank you!!
Wow! I just found you! Love the video... i see some binge watching in my future lol
Thank you. Enjoying this lesson.
You're very welcome!
I'm loving your videos! Thank you!!! Keep it up!
Great video thanx brother
I have watched some of your older videos and do see you have done some mushrooms in your videos, more would be great.
Great info 👍
Thnxs 4 uploading 👍💯
Excellent content and explanation. Thank you for identifying those berries that are not wild strawberries 🍓. My lawn in infested with these and I keep tasting them thinking they are the wild strawberries that I remember as a child. Thank you, I enjoy all your videos
I'm picking a natural weed salad on my property while watching
Really great video 👍🏿
Thank you!
Thank you 🙏
Great instruction... It looks like Cousin Things grandchildren chose a career in instructing on foraging wild edibles... I love the talking hand lol
Congratulations on finding that mushroom, Josh. I see a lot of yellow wood sorrel where I live. We also have a lot of white clover too Hopefully I can remember the information I learned in your video. If not, I will have to watch it a few more times.
I bought the bulblets of the lavender flowered wood sorrel, and while it is a tiny plant, it is very attractive in a woodland setting and made almost a small carpet on a hillside I put it in.
I love the trout lilly
Lovely video! Thank you for teaching people all of the yummy foragable goods around us! I do want to say though, milkweed is an important plant for the monarch butterflies survival. I would like to see a video where you talk about sustainably harvesting things so that people who are inspired to harvest and forage don't deplete already dangerously underpopulated areas of milkweed
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I agree and have covered this topic in a couple different videos but have yet to make a video dedicated to that specific topic. I will work on one this year!
Thank You
You're very welcome!
I grow milkweed in my flower garden because they are pretty and smell good.
They are pretty! Also good for monarchs and other native pollinators, so good on you for growing it!
Thank you for your "exact Descriptions"
But your title says "edibles" .. need more description of how and what is edible!
True and true
He does mention on the dock the seeds and the young shoots , also high in oxalic acid, so keep the young leaves in moderation, like the wood sorrel, tastes really yummy if you like a little sour, blossoms and leaves, small seed buds are all fine. The stems when young are not tough. The garlic mustard leaves as well as blossoms are edible. I'm not too familiar with the others, I let queen Annes lace grow for the beautiful blossoms and to put my swallowtail caterpillars on when I take them off my parsley. I have used the roots in making broth, they give it flavor but they are tough. Hope this helps a bit.
Hey josh I have a lot of poison parsnip here in Vermont, I wanted to know your take on how edible they are and how to handle them.
Hi, do you know the name of the grass in the background of the sorrel @40:30? My cat loves to eat it btw
Have you ever dryed garlic mustard and used it as seasoning for meats
Solomon seal’s new shoots are slightly mild & slightly bitter. Actually, not bad.
there is some other plant that looks like yellow wood sorrel. also 3 lobes and heart shape but much larger in size and flower is purplish white, and the leaves come directly from the ground.
QUESTION! For us cellphoned city types, any PLANT IDENTIFIER app you recommend? thank you sir
I hate Google, but my understanding is that Google has an excellent app that identifies plants. i never used it, so don't know the name.
I thought trout lillies could only be found on Crowder’s Mountain in Gastonia
, I need the wood sorrel syrup recipe
I have a plant that looks like white snakeroot but has a square stem , it hasn't flowered yet. I chewed a leaf but didnt swallow and it made my mouth feel weird. I thought it was a nettle ... but what is this plant? The leaves are opposite off the stem... has no as romantic smell
Hi Josh, At 30:00, it appears to be Wild Oats a.k.a. Little Bellwort (Uvularia sessilifolia) not Solomon's Seal. They grow in same locations and emerge about the same time. Both are lovely plants that are edible/medicinal. Be well!
I'm aware of them but its Solomon's Seal the shoots look very similar to each other which can easily cause confusion.
@@TrilliumWildEdibles Thanks for clarifying! So many plants look SO MUCH ALIKE! It will take a lifetime and then some to get them all straight. Best!
oooh I want some of the Garlic mustard! I eat fresh garlic cooked and raw everyday keeping the sexy vampires away!
If you like garlic, but have a hard time growing it. I highly recommend growing elephant garlic which is in the leek family, so not a true garlic. I preffered the lazy, cleaner way of only harvesting the thick stem to use in recipes. You can eat the bulb, but either use a _lot_ more oil when sauteeing or use in soups or sauces instead. The flower is mildly attractive, too - though some have prettier flowers than others. - or maybe they are prettier, more purple if grown in more sun.
Milkweeds are they edible?
6 maybe
Question; Can the oak leaf or any other leaf, from a woody tree, be made into ???
i think tilia/basswood leaves are edible. i know that the flowers are made into tea in many countries all over the world.
Sumac leaves are sometimes considered mildly toxic, but have a nice fragrance and might be made into a tea. I'll let other decide if they are toxic.
Question. I've found wild lettuce. How do I prepare it for use. I want to get off my morphine.
So, you want a healthy form of morphine, instead of pharma poisons? What have you found out about wild lettuce?
try kratom, most companies will send you a sample
i believe the pain-relief qualities are in the sap and that the sap can be dried. May need to cut the leaf first and wait an hour or a few hours.
Poppies are gorgeous and legally sold. The peony-flowered poppies are huge and will come tree from seed if you only plant one variety and have lots of them to cross pollinate from. I used to grow the pink ones. Gorgeous!_ The seed pods' latex/sap will produce opium, but I think boiling the entire green pod can give pain relief, too - and not get you arrested. Cops know nothing about that plant anyway and would probably not arrest you even if you had 1000 opium poppies with slights in the green pods to make your own opium. The seeds are edible and may have very mild pain-relief qualities, but can make you test positive for drugs if you get a drug test at work. As far as I know, opium poppies are the same species as bread poppies. In the s.e., plant them in early autumn as they over-winter fine, and they'll bloom in late spring.
It is very easy for someone to confuse Wild Carrot with Water Hemlock, Poison Hemlock, Fool's Parsley, etc. for newer foragers. Please take one's time learning the subtle differences and be safe. People have died as a result of misidentifying a poisonous plant for Wild Carrot.
That kinda reminds me of cows parsley just alittle different.
What are the 1st - 4th Video Guides named? Couldn't find them.
They all have different names because I didn't settle on calling them video field guides until several years after having my channel. So instead of giving you the titles I'll just give you the links below.

@@TrilliumWildEdibles Thank you so much! I really enjoy your videos and your channel. I really liked your "Getting Started" videos, especially "How To Identify Wild Plants - A Guide To Botanical Terms" and "Gear You Need While Foraging Wild Edibles". It is videos like those that are the most helpful to new foragers like myself. I have purchased many different Field Guides, for the Eastern U.S. and for my area of N. Florida, so instructional videos making sense of all the jargon as well as showing edible plants up close and in in the wild are extremely helpful. Thank you so much for all you do!
I'm glad to hear my videos are helpful for you! It's always a focus of mine to think of new foragers because there's so much information that it can be hard to parse through.
Be careful not to confuse baby garlic mustard with creeping Charlie. Also, false strawberries can have a very faint watermelon flavor.
Where are you located, where does this grow?
I'm in Central Indiana.
Which plant are you curious about? There are several in this video and knowing which one will help me to answer your question.
👋
I wish we coukd upload pictures to comments
Hi Josh, At 22:00 I do not think that is first year Garlic Mustard -- the venation and the shape is not indicating Garlic Mustard. It looks like another invasive Fig Buttercup a.k.a. Lesser Celandine. It is toxic unless prepared with great care to extract them. Did you crush the leaves to smell them?
I ate from that patch of garlic mustard everyday during the growing season. Then pulled it all by hand before it went to seed. Plus that was filmed about 20ft. Outside my bedroom window when I lived at that property. They do look really similar though it's just the camera angle.
@@TrilliumWildEdibles Thanks for the info! Do you eat first year Garlic Mustard? Best!
I'll usually eat it anytime I find it, first year second year, it doesn't matter really. I usually don't eat it if it's growing in a pine forest because it seems more bitter than normal but it's a complicated plant so that just may be my experience.
Was that a bunch of mulberry?
I read its good for gout🤔 and birth control they use in India.
😇
Do you ID mushroons
I hate Facebook, but they have some excellent mushroom groups.
If you study in edible plant in wild, you should know of korean "Namul"...
Show US ALL CHICKWEED
PLANTS!!! SHOW CLEARLY, CLARITY OF CHICKWEED EASY TO GROW!!! SHOW US!! PLEASE?? 🤔🥰🥰🥰
I also appreciate detail rather than chatter.
Glad you appreciate the detail, thank you for commenting!
your sound is a bit low... :)
Sorry it's too low.
Not chickn of the woods bro... maybe lions main, or turkey tail, ir chaga, or anything else
There's no resemblance or similarity between those and what's in the video, which is chicken of the woods. I have no clue why or how someone could think differently.
I love the video! However I think it might be a little problematic to tell people that they can allow their children to eat “bane berries“. In the eastern woodlands there is a couple of extremely toxic plants with the common name bane berry (Actaea rubus/pachypoda). The fruit is well known to be deadly to children.
Well the latin name and the more frequently used common name is very clearly given at the beginning. Plus it looks nothing like the other plants with the common name baneberry so I don't see how you came to that conclusion.
Glad you enjoyed the video though.
He repeats himself too much. Its as though he wants to lengthen the video so that we are forced to watch longer and then he gets more brownie points from RUclips's algorithm. I love the detail he gives, just not the constant repetition.
I don't really feel it's too repetitive. Could you give some examples for me so I could fix that in later videos?
In general though it's more of a catch 22 situation really. If I don't add a little repetition then people are asking loads of questions that are answered in the video. If I add too much repetition it's obviously offputting.
I'd very much appreciate your input as I strive to make the best videos I can.
Please do not wave your hand in front of the camera.
Thank you
