Wild plants
A list of wild plants, which I can show on the events, with links to more informations...
Who has a garden is said to have a lot of work: loosing the earth, pulling out some wild plants, sowing seeds and giving water. In case of doing nothing, the garden will be soon full of many different wild plants. These I recommend to eat as much as possible! They have the power of wild nature; examinations have shown, that wild plants have much more vital substances than cultivated fruits and vegetables. Suggestion: Try out to eat a meal raw food with a lot of wild plants, feel the effect!
This list can give only some clues; the nature gave us our taste and intuition to decide, what is good for us and what not. It is in fact good to eat a bit little poisonous plants, and on the other hand plants which are said to be edible can be bad for us, if we eat too much of them. Also I cannot guarantee that all informations of this list are correctly; I cannot be liable for this list. If you are not sure about a plant and want to try out if it is good for you, much caution is appropriate. For example, the monkshood can burn in your mouth one hour, even if you take a tiny drop of its juice by beating and spitting out! Other plants have an hallucinating effect only about one hour after eating, and there are many other different effects of poisonous plants.
Here you can find the names of a lot of wild plants which I know and can show in a wild plant workshop, with links to more informations:
* If you go with the mouse over the English plant names, a few notes about the edible parts or the taste appear.
