This guy is the most knowledgeable person on plants I've ever come across . His presentation is excellent and so concise ,
I’ve heard there’s A look alike wild garlic that is bad for you .😊
I’d like to know.
Totally. He is one of the first person I found on mushrooms, fungus and foraging.
He is my go to guy. Glad I found him first. I feel very confident making choices based on his knowledge. He has proven himself with me. I always look to verify what he says and he is always spot on. Originally found him when beginning to learn about mushrooms. Now he is a foraging resource as well.
I think I just stumbled on a channel full of gold.
Indeed, more quality facts and info per minute than you get from 99% of youtube.
Right?! He's amazing! 👍
Ya did.👍
Yeah, it was great, but only if you're prepping for a botany exam. How much of it will you remember tomorrow? Think you or the average person, after watching this video, can identify the plants the next time you go for a walk in the woods ?
@@1973Saved Yes, I have identified the wild garlic multiple times when hiking. I did not know of the other two but will be looking for them when I go hiking the next time. I am always interested in finding anything edible when hiking and I am not a botanist.
Adam is the ultimate advertisement for wild eating - he looks incredibly healthy and his in depth knowledge is awesome.
To me, wild eating is when you don't use cutlery or plates at the table. 😄
Have you ever done a field guide book with all your knowledge? I’d buy it for sure dude!
Me too - I love these videos.
So would i
I'd buy your book, too!
I would buy it!
You need to get some land and start a school.
Somebody give this guy a series on NatGeo.
D Mac Agreed!
Maybe Netflix could give him a show

Genius doesn't require a research team, only clever chaps need someone to actually do the work for them.
CZcams is better
No I don't get nat g
Adam, your enthusiasm for the subject is contagious. Thanks for your hard work.
Thank you!
Now you go to it & work hard too. ...
this channel is bloody goldmine
Thanks!
Adam turns me into an ‘information sponge’!!! I can’t get enough of this guy!!!
Do you pass it on? Do you act on it?
@@CarnivoreHipposinBikinis I most definitely share any pertinent, scientific or personal experience plant information. I apply what I learn daily. Knowledge is only worthwhile if it can be shared. I do/have done seed work for various seed organizations because of the shared knowledge that I’ve gained over the years. Positive Vibrations…
ME TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm totally addicted!!!!!!!!!!
Man, you and your videos are so impressive. The level of knowledge you display is inspiring. Keep it up brother!
Thanks!
Learn Your Land : Hi Adam, I live in Northern Ontario Canada and in my back yard I found what was wood nettles, but I am not sure anymore. It has the same characteristics as wood nettles and stinging nettles but seem to differ as well. Let me explain; the trunk of the plant is hairy but does not seem to hurt much as you break it. From the middle trunk there are some shoots that grows alternately with hair on them as well. On the shoots there are 5 leaves (kind of like this one 🌿 but only 5 leaves at the top of each shoots , 2 pairs of leaves that are facing each other and one at the end). The leaves are hairy underneath, mostly on the veines of the leaves and smooth on top. The undersides of the leaves are greenish grey and the tops are darker green. The leaves are serrated on the edges but much less then the one you show, they have a fine serration all around but their shape are an elongated oval with a pointed end something kind of like this 🍃. Sorry I am limited with icons. They grow in a kind of shadowy part of the yard near a wooded area. I have been looking for stinging nettles or wooded nettles and I was kind of exited to find those. There are many plants growing at the same place. However the more research I do the more I think that I am maybe mistaken. Can you help me identify what I am describing please? I know that without a picture it is difficult but if you think you have a name I can look it up and compare it to what I have. Thank you so much for what you do, I have learned a lot with your videos. May the Lord bless you and yours.
Im growing to have a crush on 😻 Adam.
I love how im learning so much about plants and the area i live in
Adam, if the grid ever goes down, im coming over to your house and i know ill never go hungry. Wish i knew as much as you about wild edibles. Thanks for all you do to educate us.
If the grid goes down the gun fanatic pretend patriots will terrorize citizens and murder anyone with food. I'd rather be dead. There's a mushroom for that.
The more you eat around where you live the faster the plants will start teaching you ... you have your own house. Y/our own land. Don't be lazy... if the grid goes down how many thousands of lazy people like you are going to turn up at Adams house?... lazy people will go hungry... don't wait till the grid goes down. Don't be stupid as well as lazy! Apply the education he is giving you where you are, & pass it on to others - plant a nettle patch... get on with it.
Nope. You are responsible for yourself and everyone who works to become that way never wants to hear shst you just wrote.
My boy scout troop used to camp once a year at a farmer's timber. We would only take a stick of butter and a cast iron skillet. We would forage for our food. We had a fresh water spring coming out the side of a hill, we usually went in May when the morels were in season. The hill above the spring would have these wild onions growing on the side of the hill. We used to mix the morels with the wild onions with any fish we caught in the stream. We added watercress with wood sorrel as a side dish. Thank you for remind me of my youth.
I'm a life long student appreciating an outstanding teacher! Thank you for sharing so much with us! These videos are more Important than ever right now!
I hope these videos are never lost
When the grid shuts down, the only way I know is to download them all now. Then you at least view them as long as the fuel for the generator holds out. See Guy McPherson for info.
fuel for the generator? Are you in the 80s my dude? We have powersources that draw energy from the wobble of water and the motion of the body that you can pick up for the price of a gaming console or tv and that's just the tip of the berg.
@@infinity2kx can you direct me to the things you talk about
@@infinity2kx please
Books are best!
Thank you! I’m in Pennsylvania too and I never knew Dames Rocket was edible, let alone medicinal. I’ll be looking for it when it comes out this spring.
It's a strong taste. Needs a few tries to get used to it and come to like it... cooking mollified the pungency.
Same with horseradish root. Can eat much more of it if you cook it!
YOU MADE ME RE-LIVE EATING ALL THOSE WILD GREENS, AND GARLIC COOKED IN FAT, WITH FRIED APPLES ON THE SIDE, HA HA, GROWING UP, THANK YOU FOR THE MEMORIES MANY PRAYERS/BLESSINGS!
Make some new memories... the plants are still there..
Been eating weeds for sixty years no seventy years just love this program
I love Adam he is a nice man and knows much about the plants and organisms!!
... rumor has it, he's an MMA fighter who has 200 wins by submission, ha just kidding, you're right
Awesome video! Great information!
Thanks Chad!
“What good is knowing stuff if you don’t share it with others”. Samm Sheperd, 1994-2018.
My son left a gift of CZcams instructional videos.....I’m so grateful. Keep making these and stay safe!!
Hi Janette, I looked him up. He did more & gave more in his short life than most do - and it's clear he made the right choices & by grace arrived at the right destination. He fulfilled Ps 112:2 for you as will your other children.
Kumar Biswas wow thank you for that kind comment! Yes I take comfort in that and the promise of resurrection! Revelation 21:4 💕
I totally agree. I hope that every body who sees & hears Adam acts on the information, learns more by doing and then shares their experience in person with others in their locality...
Very impressed with his depth of knowledge. High marks for effective communication.
Thanks, Tim!
So, are you in a PHD program? You must have started with at least a BS in Botany.
He makes it all so clear, and understandable! You get the best of both worlds, I want the science info and the everyday speech breakdown lol his way of doing this is unrivaled! xoxoxoxo
I'm sure you have a good reason why you never show the plants being processed, but I would really enjoy videos on you doing that. Also the other food items that you pair them along side of.
Thanks again, great video
Plants don't really like to be processed too much. Plants love Adam because he is very kind and respectful of a living plants integrity... too much focus on processing leads to a focus on product leads to money profit mechanised monoculture to supply lazy selfish city people to buy from shops...
Not really what plant people were created for...
It is best that weiiii... know Adam nibbling through his lands....
Years ago, my husband was invited to our daughter's classroom to give a talk on edible "weeds". He shared that our family gathered and ate nettles, milk thistle leaves, cress, etc. It wasn't until recently that our daughter told us of the mean teasing she experienced after that talk, that our family was so poor, we had to eat weeds!
How VERRRRRRRY SICK THOSE CHILDREN WHO TEASED YOU DAUGHTER……WHAT GOES AROUND WILLLLLLLL COME AROUND. I KNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am in my 60s & remember the same treatment from classmates way back then . It was usually the "townies/city kids" that were the meanest but the county kids would join in so nobody would know their families did the same ". We were healthy & very seldom sick , never went hungry . It seems that since we have become so I industrialized & 98% of all people get their food from gro stores they have become meaner. Children are so mean regardless of which generation they come from . Your daughter was a strong child at the time to survive that meaness for so many yrs w/o telling you . She is lucky to have you as parents to teach her these things . She will get by much better than the kids that teased her because you are her parents .
Sad but typical. I gave friends who would rather go to the shops and buy foods that are potentially sprayed with pesticides than pick weeds! They will even help me gather things like blackberries but not eat them🤦♂️They drive me mad! But more for us forages i guess! 🤷♀️
@@elaineedwards8946 I have a friend that lives not far from me & he has been with me picking black berries , sand plums & the like . He now watches for them to see when they start ripening . He came by a few days ago & I was getting some lambs quarters for a salad & he even was open minded enough to try them . Makes ya feel good when someone else is willing to try .
I hope she soon learned to gently laugh at ignorant people. They don't know what they don't know, ha Blessings for teaching it too, that's sacrificial giving
What a smart guy. I want him on my team in the apocalypse.
Why would you want to be alive in an apocalypse? All the gun yahoos will dominate the country until they've murdered everything in sight. I'd rather be dead and There's a mushroom 🍄 for that.
He is you twit! Are you practising what he is preaching?
Adam, You have a special gift. Your presentation and demeanor is pleasant and soothing. You are obviously college trained with your knowledge of each plant species. I have been hunting wild edibles almost all of my life with the help of my elders when I was young to expanding my knowledge on my own as an adult. I cant speak Latin very well and I sound like a Neanderthal when I try so I don't put those big fancy names in my videos, But, I have a serious passion for learning wild edibles. Almost an obsession. LOL.. I am always looking to expand my knowledge and I find your channel great. Anyway,, I would like to make a couple requests. Because I am not college trained and self taught, I am extremely thorough with my research before putting any plant into my mouth because I know how dangerous misidentifying a plant can be. Although I use my field guides religiously, I find watching videos of a plant Im interested in is much better than a picture because I find that most times, there are characteristics in each plant that for some reason doesn't find its way into a guide. With that said, my requests are, would you please give some close up live video while talking about these edibles and also name the most common look-alike associated with the plant you are presenting. I think most novists and beginners don't realize just how hard it can be to 110% safely identify a certain plant or mushroom and should be aware of any look-alikes there may be. thank you and keep up the great work. Also, you look better with short hair. LOL
Thanks for the great suggestions! I'll do my best to incorporate them into future videos.
I studied ecology/forestry in the early 70's. I have been an amateur naturalist since then. I would be very interested in Adam's education and background. His knowledge just in characterization of plants seems as a sufficient basis for a Phd candidate.
@Tim Stephens I really hope he is self educated and not limited to what little is tought in the supposed educational systems of today. The greatest lesson/gift you can bestowe on someone is the ability to think and learn on ones own. NOT A PHD. Dont be a sheep.
I don't think he is college trained, he is the professor.
@@timstephens3554 I don't know any experienced naturalists with a degree beyond maybe paul stamets. A curriculum would skim over too much of the practical knowledge to ever be able to walk into the woods and get a full idea of what you're looking at. School will teach you basic cell biology, and phonetics, but not load your brain with facts like an excyclopedia, adam haritan style.
For example, I took a 2 year carpentry course in college, unfortunately, and after 4 months in class we finally moved beyond the theory of hand tools, and different kinds of nails (I now know twisty nails are called ardox, woooo!!! master carpenter right here), and into how to put a blade onto a circular saw. 25% of the way through and we hadn't even built anything. As far as building code, and things people would expect to learn in school, math, and business skills, you don't get into that nearly as much as they should, and when its touched on, it's only touched on gently. I learned more from 1 month in the field before ever starting school. And I'd imagine it would be similar with Adam. I don't think he learned all this from sitting in a classroom. The only way I could see him actually retaining all this knowledge is if he learned hands on, on a case by case basis, based on his own intuition, without someone telling him to learn it..
Delicious! With every Learn Your Land video i watch i feel more at ease with nature, and my belly gets fuller with every advance in knowledge Adam provides. Many thanks as always
I agree.. feeling at ease with nature is the gift... weiiii eat wild free foods and directly experience her generosity and vitality and ancient harmony... weiiii relax into joy... no wonder Adam has such a wide smile...
This is like my favorite channel now. :)
You've introduced me to several things that are right in my yard. Eating more and more foraged greens and the like. Thanks a bunch (of Dandelions) 👍
wild garlic! My favorite! So much flavor in a small package.
Agreed!
I found wild garlic on my second foray ever, soo exciting. Packed up some to bring home and was seasoning dishes all week
just stopped at my mom's and saw the butter crest growing right by her driveway! Grabbed a sprig and it was delicious! My 3 year old loves it so much they went to find more! Thanks for sharing what's in your brain!
The youtube algorithm loaded a few of your vids on my queue. And for that I am grateful! Very knowledgeable and great presentation....I have subscribed.
Awesome, thanks!
Excellent tutorial! Keep them coming.
I was looking for a video like this! Thank you!
You’re awesome man. I’m lucky to have stumbled upon your channel. This is what I’ve been looking for.
Your information is awesome, and I really appreciate being able to learn so much with just a click of a video. Thank you!
Awesome stuff man.
thanks for making these (:
Thanks. Excellent post as always!
Awesome Adam!! The wild garlic was my first wild herb when I was wee lad!!! I was thinking of bringing the family to 2018 Flora&Fungi hike it's a 1hour and 30mins from me!
Don't just think about it! Do it!
4:04 "Trail side nibble" I've been looking for a way to express that idea. Thanks!
They can also be gathered to add to a fresh chimichurri recipe.
Very awesome video, great work!
Thanks Adam Very Good info As always
you're awesome! thanks man, love your consciousness
Thank you!
Hey Adam, I'm new to your channel and have watched probably a handful of videos since I found your channel as of yesterday.... I just want to say " I really enjoy watching your videos, they are very informative and you are very precise and inspire me as a person who loves to hike camp and Bushcraft to get to know my land!" Thank you for doing what you do. You also make me want to eat healthier straight from our beautiful mother earth. Have a wonderful day!
Again as always a big thankyou Adam
I'm so happy I found your channel! Great work and amazing knowledge!
Incredible presentation, always enjoy your videos! Living in mid Sweden is a bit boring when it comes to edibles, there are some out there, but pretty rough overall. It's just so satisfying knowing a few edible things when you're walking around, it gives a whole new dimension to the seasons!
Thanks for watching!
Love your passion. One of my best follows.
Thanks Ken! Glad you're enjoying the videos.
much love to you my dude, thanks for all the wisdom !
Love your videos! So informative. So interesting! Thanks for making them
Love your videos. Best on CZcams on the topic. Keep up the good work. Much love from Washington State! 🤘👍✌️😀
Thanks Eric!
I know nothing about foraging but when my youngest daughter was little, out playing by the stream behind our house, she noticed that some of the plants looked like the green onions I'd buy at the store and put into salad. So she harvested some and made me wash and chop them and serve them for dinner. They tasted stronger than the store bought but we were fine eating them!
I use them as chives. What's weird is they grow throughout the winter, snow and all, and die off in the summer. They always come back though and spread a little.
When I was a teen, I used to chop them up, bulb and all, and cook them in various dishes. You didn't need much to flavor food and they were free!
Ok I'm just going to say I want pics with info bullets... It's way too much knowledge to get this. You need to just come help me find and pick this stuff.. But I'm liking the knowledge. thanks
Oh you tube archives
Its wild garlic and highly nutritious!! Your girl has gift,,herbal healer !!!
Love your video’s, I learn so much from you, thanks
As always you are the man Adam, thank you so much for all of your efforts!
Thanks for watching, Todd!
Good video Adam
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us brother.
Another amazing and helpful video! #learnyourland
Thanks!
I don’t think I saw so many positive comments on the other channels. Maybe is the energy of the plants connecting awesome people.
Thank you for shearing your gift.
It absolutely is exactly as you say. Plants love Adam because... plants are people too and he knows that... they have chosen to build him as he is... weiiii are a planet of symbionts...
most other channels are.... human centred in some way... Adam is plant centred... planet centred... I can watch his videos over and over and over. They unfold new each viewing... they are so rich and subtle and deep and they leave us wide open with curiosity to know more and more...
Weiii rush into the nearest woods so that weiiii can add the light and sound and fresh air and scents and crunches underfoot and feel with our fingers and breathe in deep...
He is bringing us back to life...
My goodness, you're an encyclopedia!
I have developed a very strong interest in wild edibles over the last years, but I'm still extremely reluctant to try some of them because of the insecurity I feel.
I know that they are the path towards health because all of the food that we are buying is poisoned, but of course the air and water and soil are poisoned too these days!
Thank you for all the information!
If you ever pass by Portugal I can show you my edible/medicinal plant sanctuary 😂
Fantastic! Thanks for all the details on identifying and using.
I am patiently waiting for nettle to pop up for that medicinal and tasty homemade tea i love to make... Thank you for your knowledge it's much appreciated
This vid came across my feed and made me think. This is the guy l want in my post Zombie Apocalypse survival group.
What are you saying? Words matter
Hey from MD. You should do meetups. I would drive up to PA to explore to woods with you. Thanks for your videos.
The Watcher yeah and with a picture like yours, I’m sure he would want to rush right out and meet up with you in the middle of nowhere.
Thanks for info, have a great day!
Thanks, again, Dr. Haritan, for the great info!!
Over in NE PA, Susquehanna County, we have got hit with some serious snow and there is more on the way, I have heard. Right now, the only bare ground is part of my gravel driveway. You must be enjoying the warmth, there Adam. I am trying to establish a perennial fruit and vegetable garden in my yard. Wild edibles are part of that. Thanks. Joe
We're supposed to get some of that snow tonight!
I was born in Bradford Pennsylvania i lived on a road called Susquehanna.. I'm stuck in Arkansas now I'm in a living hell..
I can't wait to hunt ramps this spring
oh yes and fiddle heads soon.
I read the comments to see if anyone would call them "Ramps"! When I was a kid back in WV, they had "Ramp Festivals". Everyone shared their ramp dishes and we all had bad breath together! :-)
These species are also in Oregon, in the Willamette Valley. I especially love Dames Rocket! The first time I met this plant, it was at a mushroom patch in a city alley, amongst hazel trees.
Dude...... you know SO much about plants!
I feel like there's no way I could learn 10% of what you know
I love that wild onion/garlic. There is one in Texas with triangular/flatter leaves that I like more tho I don't know its name (it will grow in PA but I've never seen it). That variety that you show has a sourness to it but I do like it.
Christopher Pepe Sounds like three-cornered leek, does it have small white flowers?
I love mustards, but I am not aware of the first two in my area, Boise, too bad! Same with #3. And #4, there are wild onions in the foothills, but Aase's onion is kind of rare, so I leave it alone. I am eating dandelions, henbit and storksbill (erodium cicutarium), and I am looking forward to lamb'a quarters and shepard's purse. Then comes the purslane. Nice video!
Thanks!
Your chomping on a leaf reminds me of one of my Ewell Gibbons books. Is that accidental?
Thanks for the video Adam, very good information I enjoyed it !
THANK YOU for sharing your knowledge with us!
what kind of jacket ya got on? Awesome video as usual. your a wise dude. I harvested some shaggy mane shrooms today thanks to your inspiration. The flavor was one of a kind. I ate them alone fried in organic ghee with pink salt. God bless you brother. You are opening minds.
Thanks! And the jacket is a Carhartt Cryder.
Noodles Alfredo with stir fried fresh Shaggy Manes and smoked trout for flavoring. At least a $50 side dish at a 5 star hotel. I forage so I can eat nirvana daily for the cost of paying attention.
@@timstephens3554 spot on bro thats the best way!
hi Adam. I live out by Philadelphia but almost every year me and my wife travel two outside of Pittsburgh for the Mother Earth News Fair. Do you go to that event as well? It's a great event it's huge. it's at the Seven Springs Resort.
Hey Bart, I actually haven't been to a Mother Earth News Fair even though it's fairly close to where I live. It always seems to coincide with another event I'm attending or leading, though hopefully one of these years I'll be there!
Thank you for all your videos, I'm watching one by one. You've made my new venture into wild edibles so simply understandable and greatly more possible.
Thankyou. I do enjoy your videos & your enthusiasm.
Break down and do a video on psilocybes in the area. You do not have to tell people to eat them or pick them. But describing them would be great.
Ricky Chase I could see that now my man would be out in the middle of a cow pasture at 4 a.m. Whispering hahaha
Ricky Chase you should just learn the ones the grow in your area. shroomery.org and mushroomobserver.com will help you. look up ovoids
Do your own research 😜if you can 😊
Perhaps Adam is wiser than you mister... who would it be great for? For you to swank about your superior stance?
You go into the fields and forests and let a stranger give you a strange mushroom... Mr. Wise Guy...
The truly wise are not careless of other souls like you are.
I have not eaten any of the Brassica yet. Looking forward to it. I have eaten many of the wild garlic/onions though.
Thank you for teaching us nice things!!!
Ahhh Dames Rocket! Never knew this.....love this plant...so abundant here in the Northern Catskills! Thanks mate! Appreciate your zeal for our woods!!!!
IMHO: Perhaps, when collecting Allium vineale, "bulbs", One could slice off the root ends, an poke them back into the soil, where they might then continue to grow again, for future harvests! Even though it may be an "alien", it might be valuable enough to not totally eradicate from One's property.
You couldn't be more professional, personable and knowledgeable if you tried. Why are you not on mainstream TV???!!!! Talent scouts, come look here.
Because mainstream tv is there to dumb you down and pacify you, fatten you up. This guys too educational and might inspire people to buy less Monsanto Kroger kemicals
Always excellent information Adam, bless you brother
Ur excitement and pure joy for this topic is infectious!!!!
Are you reading cue cards? How do you memorize words like "isothiazalanone"
Timothy Norat
Right?!?! Even in my youth , when my brain was at its best, I wasn’t able to memorize this much information!
Thank goodness those that are able share their knowledge in video format!
he must have a degree in botany and/or biochemistry or some such. would like to know what and where he studied, but you can't beat just natural enthusiasm like this it makes learning a pleasure
You should work whith a chef and open a 'green' restaurant.
Wow. Thanks. I'll be adding that to my everyday crunch for sure.
Dude, your depth of knowledge is awesome!
Thank you!
Good information and he's good looking. Do a show you're photogenic
He is so smart! Love these videos. Learning a LOT!
Impressive in depth knowledge. Thks for the vid.
Thanks for another knowledgeable video ✌
You have a wealth of useful information; thank you for sharing!!
Great video great info. Just subscribed.

Wonderful...thank you!
Fascinating information. Thanks for the share
Adam, I absolutely love you and your videos. I’m in Hatchechubbee, Alabama. I’m 65 totally disabled. I wish I could walk my land. It look similar to where you are.
We'll, you did it again...another quality video! Thank you!
Awesome again! Your knowledge is insane.
Great information and positive energy at its best!
Thank you for being my brother!
