  • Hey guys in this video we take a look at the variety of plants in a small area on my short walk today. We take a look at edible and medicinal plants like dandelion, plantain, wild carrot, raspberries, blackberries, yarrow, and even poison ivy. Right across the trail is a huge field of mints, mountain mint and bee balm plus inside this prairie like habitat is echinacea and wild quinine.
    The abundance of plants in any given are is usually quite large so it is only proper to be careful and not destroy other vegetation while foraging.Some of these are medicinal, some are edible, and some can be or are poisonous. A lot of times when people go to forage they are thinking about one thing, the plant they are after. Instead of thinking about other plants in the area as well to make sure they don't destroy them. This video is an attempt to show you why you should be careful when foraging to not cause damage to other plants that are edible and/or medicinal.
    I thank you for watching this video I hope you enjoyed it and I hope you learned something. If you want to learn more about edible or medicinal plants make sure to subscribe.

    I've watched a lot of videos on wild edibles lately. This is the best so far. Explaining the habitat was helpful too 👍

    Wow, that's alot of mint... lol. I think there are many black eyed susans in my area... also poison ivy, lol. Lots of milkweeds in my area and monarch butterflies, but I have noticed less than usual in recent years. Also i've noticed less lightning bugs/fireflies in my area, as well as less grasshoppers every year. Probably because of the chemtrails... Great video bro, thank you.

    • @TrilliumWildEdibles

      Monarchs are widely affected by loss of milkweed and habitat loss. Modern agricultural practices keep milkweed at bay. Overall there are definitely many things affecting plant and insect populations. It's definitely sad to see.
      That field is amazing, all that mint brings a whole lot of bees, butterflies, and other flying insects. It is so full of life! Thanks for commenting Daniel!

    • @TrilliumWildEdibles
      @TrilliumWildEdibles  8 лет назад +2

      You're welcome and I'm glad you learned something! This video was shot with a fixed position hands free shoulder rig that makes it hard to get highly detailed close ups of some plants like I have in a few previous videos, but I always try to get as close as I can. I appreciate the feedback and will check out your channel!

    • @TrilliumWildEdibles
      @TrilliumWildEdibles  8 лет назад +1

      You're very welcome, I'm glad you liked it! Mountain Mint is one of the most aromatic mints I know of which one of the reasons I like to use it. Hopefully you find some on your trail!

    Thank you for excellent educative videos,I love wild plants .There is the plant that grows next to almost all of my wild raspberries.It is very similar,has though 5 leaves,bigger thorns,stronger stem,gets over 6 ft.very invasive.Any idea what it could be?Nobody knows,All think it is Raspberry,but it newer makes berries and actuality suffocates berry shrubs.Thank you.

    Those watching be cautious Queen Anne’s Lace and Hemlock (highly poisonous) are very similar.

  • @aaronengland8289
    @aaronengland8289 6 лет назад

    That's winged sumac. If you look at the branches it will always have those strange wing-like leafy growths running up the stem between each leaf. Staghorn and smooth sumac don't have the wings. It's sometimes called shining sumac because it has glossy or waxy leaves, especially around the upper parts where the fruits grow. it's VERY pretty when it's young.

    Were you actually handling poison ivy? Btw, where did you film this?

    • @TrilliumWildEdibles
      @TrilliumWildEdibles  8 лет назад +2

      Yes, I do all the time, I'm not allergic so no worries. This video was filmed in a local park about 20 minutes from my house.

  • @skylovecraft2491

    It's called opium lettuce but i didn't think there was actually opiates in it. It does make u sleepy though n certainly helps alleviate pain and soreness. It's one of my all time favorite wild edibles.

    • @tiffjohnson2706
      @tiffjohnson2706 2 года назад

      It doesn't have actual opium in it, you are correct. I came to see if anyone else noticed.

    I did not realize you had to be allergic to poison ivy in order to get the skin reaction. Cool.

    • @TrilliumWildEdibles
      @TrilliumWildEdibles  8 лет назад +2

      Yeah, otherwise I'd be a walking rash from oak, ivy, and sumac most of the year, lol. It's also sometimes fun to mess with people and see their faces when you touch it! Thanks for commenting David!

    What can you use raspberry leaves for

    • @TrilliumWildEdibles
      @TrilliumWildEdibles  7 лет назад +1

      Teas, for taste/drinking or for medicine. The making of them for either purpose isn't really any different though.

  • @LS-kg6my

    You better be damn careful in foraging “wild carrot” or you may eat hemlock which looks VERY similar

  • @Dusk2898
    @Dusk2898 8 лет назад +1

    FYI: Exposure and being allergic to poison ivy works like this: You have an empty glass, and every time you're exposed to poison ivy your glass gets more full....and when your glass is COMPLETELY full, you will then become allergic to the plant. Many plant "allergies" work like this.....😊😉

    • @TrilliumWildEdibles
      @TrilliumWildEdibles  8 лет назад

      I don't know... I spend a lot of time in poison ivy, oak and sumac and still am not allergic in any way. Though it is possible to develop an allergy to either of those at any time, so always be cautious and avoid it if possible. Thanks for commenting!

    Do you have any new videos

    • @TrilliumWildEdibles
      @TrilliumWildEdibles  5 лет назад

      Not yet. I've been dealing with a shoulder injury and haven't been able to film. There's been a lot going on besides that too, but I should be able to start filming again this week. I'll make a community post here in the next day or so explaining everything. If possible I'll try to get a video out to explain things as well.
      I apologize for the long gap in videos. With the injury, holding a camera and editing is too much pain physically. It's getting better and I'm tired of being on the couch, lol!
      Hope this helps to explain things a bit Teja!

    How do you keep the ticks off of you?

    • @TrilliumWildEdibles
      @TrilliumWildEdibles  8 лет назад +2

      I wear shorts. I know that sounds crazy but shorts allow me to see and feel any ticks very quickly, then they are just simply brushed off. I don't usually use bug protection, if I do I just wash my whole body in hunting soap to remove all human scent. That works pretty good at times for certain things.

    Dude wild lettuce does NOT contain opiates, do you check your info before making videos? As far as I know there’s no harm to using it over time, I use it often and I’m fine, however, I will look into that.

  • @thereaper2762
    @thereaper2762 2 года назад

    You said wild "quinine?" is that like the quinine in tonic water? Should be easy to identify cause it looks like a whole lot of tiny panda heads

    • @TrilliumWildEdibles
      @TrilliumWildEdibles  2 года назад +1

      No, wild quinine is a completely different plant.
      Wild quinine flowers resemble a small crown on a head. They're very dense and feel like cauliflower florets. The leaves are very rough like sandpaper.
      The quinine you're thinking of comes from South America.
