Hey great channel!
Very helpfull..

Good to teach people the art of foraging so much abundance on people’s door steps yet they bag sad jet lagged salad from supermarkets..I’ve been foraging for Elderflowers here in the UK
One of the most difficult things, is remembering the names.
A little annotation in a corner of the scientific name, or even both common and scientific, I personally would find that really, really helpful to kindof, lock it in my head.
I'm sure as I get to know the families better I will find it far easier but I'm just at a stage I'm really struggling to keep up.
A good frined of mine learns far better from books, so he's going out now and able to identify every plant his wife points at in their area ... to the point it's starting to freak her out!
So I have competition!!! XD
Thanks for this video I've learned quite a bit. Out foraging
Absolutely love your channel. Your videos are well informative. You have a lovely calming present. You’ve inspire me a lot! I love wild foods, tea, cooking and growing plants 🌱 definitely learn a few new things from you recently. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and taking time to make these videos! ❤️

Love your channel and great videos for anyone who is interested in foraging!
I love linden flower tea, we always used to have this in winter. It's great for when you have a cold.
Thanks :). Linden tea is one of my favourites
Thank you for your video's they're ace.
Thanks Ian 😁
Great video, very educational. I already do some foraging while walking my doggy. So will be on a lookout for the new ones to me. Thank you ❣️
Thanks 😊
Found some pineapple weed today after watching and learning from a lot of your videos. Thankyou for the great content!
What did you think of it? Cheers 😊
I dont mean to be offtopic but does anybody know a way to log back into an Instagram account..?
I stupidly forgot my login password. I would love any tricks you can give me!
@Samson Axl instablaster =)
@Zane Reyansh Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and Im in the hacking process now.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Zane Reyansh It worked and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thanks so much, you really help me out !
Glad you've had the weather for foraging its been terrible down my way, thanks for the ideas! I love picking my own teas.
It was good weather. Not anymore haha
I'll definitely be trying out pineapple weed. Very good videos mate, keep up the good work 👍
Cheers mate
Thank you so much 🌻
Good, I will have my own herbal tea cupboard. Very knowledgeable video, many thanks.
Cheers :). And yes I love having a nice selection of herbal teas
Totally LOVING your vids man xxx
Thank you 😁
amazing! you have so much invaluable knowledge. please keep sharing!
Thanks 😊
Thanks for all the info, love your videos 😀
Thanks 😊
Well timed video. I went out the house with my son today intent on going to make pine needle tea but he had other plans and where he wanted to go didn't have pine trees.
This video will more than likely be watched again tomorrow before I head out for our walk.
How did it go?
@@UKWILDCRAFTS had no joy on finding anything because I got distracted when I seen a field almost filled completely with ash so I went in to search for cramp balls with my little minion on my shoulders.
I was being eaten alive by midges and decided to call it a day when my little poop monster decided to put enough in 1 nappie to fill 5 nappies.
However today was a different story I have seen chicken of the woods a few times but always gave it a tap and thought that's too tough for eating. Well today I think I found a pretty soft one just waiting for an id on Facebook to see if I've got the right one.
Very useful information, thank you, I'll watch out for some of these when I'm out walking
Cheers 😊
Thanku 🙏this video is wonderful xx
Thanks :)
Brilliant I'm learning loads thankyou ❤
You’re welcome 😁
Only one I didn't find locally is the mint! Brilliant video
Thanks 😊. What is your favourite?
Thank you for the video, good description on vitamins and the plant itself. I only wish a description of taste was included as well.
Very well explained..
Thanks 😊
Part 2 please :) It would be great if you did a video on each tea. I mean like start with a shop bought product. Zoom in on the ingredients then give it a Lets Go, then star swip to forage then star swipe to the tea being dried for storage and made.
i particularity interested in the red teas. witch i believe are a mix of plants.
How'd you come to know all this stuff? I find myself getting more and more interested in plants and botany. I'm a massive tea drinker too, I'm very interested to know how these plants taste. Very interesting video, to know that I myself can find and make use of these plants with just a little knowledge, amazing!
Basically from years of reading books and putting it into practice. I’m basically always foraging when I’m out, always looking in the bushes haha. Also I’ve been on a fair few organised foraging walks as it’s nice to be able to ask a pro questions when you’re new to it
Brilliant 🌞
Thanks 😊
Hey, I’m working my way through your videos and love your stuff! Thank you for the help and it’s really encouraging me. Question about Mallow please, I’ve found tree mallow on our beach, could I use this instead of common mallow? thank you 😊
Hi Amy thanks 😊. Yes, tree mallow is edible too in the same way, though the leaves tend to go rough quicker
i still use cleaver to stick to people and I'm a grown up haha!
Haha yeah I was thinking this after I said it. I still do too 😆
Fantastic video. Really informative and fascinating thank you
Thanks 😊
thank you for this video! i'm a budding forager very interested in learning more. would be extremely interested in opening a dialogue with you to learn more about where to forage, what to avoid, and tools i should carry :) i leave it to you if you are willing to share your personal wisdom!
I’ve been looking out for the pineapple weed an after a few day I found it on the path only 10 doors away from my home I carefully pulled 2 up an I’m hopeful it will take and I can grow it on. Still haven’t tasted it. You say use it fresh or dried but can you freeze it. ❤️your channel
Thanks 😊. I've never tried freezing it, I can imagine it would go mushy when thawed. Maybe just give a few flowers tops a go to test
Have you got a really good book with great photos and methods on how to use, that you could recommend.
Enjoy your videos always leaning something new. Would of liked a bit more info on making the teas. How many of each flower do you need per cup?
Thanks 😊. It depends on your own tastes really. But I'd say about a heaped tablespoon of the leaves/ flowers for all of the teas
Thanks for the feedback though. When I do part 2 I'll include more info on making the teas

I love watching your videos. Could I ask, which are the best books for beginners (UK). I'm always a bit frightened of making a mistake and picking something harmful. It would be nice to keep.a pocket guide book with me
A good pocket guide is the Collins Gem food for free. Quite detailed for a little field guide
@@UKWILDCRAFTS Thank you 😊
I'm 99% sure that I found water mint. I say 99% because it doesn't smell like how I'd expected - it was actually quite odd, but not unpleasant, weirdly. It was like a strong toothpastey smell. Would you say this is how you'd describe it, or have I picked the wrong plant? xD Saying that, I have already imbibed 4 mugs of this as a tea over the past two days, and I'm still alive and well.
I was just thinking perhaps you might have found some Spearmint...
Just as it's mentioned,Lol!!
The Vast Majority of the Mint family are Edible and often Medicinal!!
I'm pretty sure that the vast majority of the Mint family
~ have no toxic members...
But, I could be wrong
So it's best to check as there's always an exception to prove the Rule!
Do your due diligence and enjoy your foraging!
Especially the Eating /Drinking Part!!
Namasté 🙏💞
