SEED SEASON! Free plants are everywhere!
It's that time of year everyone... The time of year where millions of free plants are just sitting out there waiting for you to come scoop them up.
These days we are all so impatient. We are all also resource strapped. The world is go go go go and sometimes we have a hard time connecting to small things that our ancestors did, which paid them back over decades. Today we're going to tap into our inner troglodyte and go collecting seed to bring back to our cave.
Today's video was very hard to edit, because I had over 4 hours of footage to try to condense into a small video on seed collecting. Seeds I collected in the last 2 weeks:
- Acorns
- Black locust
- Walnuts
- Hazelnuts
- Paw paws
- Apples
- Pears
- Asparagus
- Rosa rugosa
- Coriander
- Thyme
- Oregano
- Parsley
- Lovage
- Lavender
- Sage
- Yarrow
- Black Eyed Susan
- Foxglove Beardtongue
- Hairy Beardtongue
- Dense Blazing star
- Prairie Smoke
- Wild Bergamot (bee balm)
- Vervain
- Aster
- Butterly Milkweed
- Upland White Goldenrod
- Wild Geranium
- Wild Ginger
- Large leaved aster
- White Trillium
- Foam Flower
- Common Blue violet
- Zig Zag Goldenrod
- and Mushrooms!
Having a habit of going out and indentifying plants in the wild, returning in the fall, collecting seeds and spreading them (responsibly, with plenty of research), can do your food forest, and our insect/bird biome SO MUCH GOOD. You can be such a force of good on this planet, and now is the time you can have a major impact. Plus... so much money saved!
Thanks for watching,
Get busy!
