Oh gosh - my yearly bunny costs!

I would have no idea where to start with foraging

I have about 5 things I pick regularly that are quite easy to identify.

Dandelions - I'm sure you know what they're like

Plantain - ribbed leaves, normally in lawns or grass paths

Brambles - thorny leaves that have a soft velvety back

Nettles - Dead nettles I feed fresh, they don't sting, they usually have flowers and the stems are squarer. Stingers I've been tying up to dry.

Goosegrass - the sticky stuff that sticks to your clothes

Oh and once our rose bushes start flowering I'll nick some of their petals too I've also bought a few small herb plants for £1.50 each as a bit of an investment for next year.

I refuse to add up *everything* i've spent since April last year when Biccy joined us :shock:

That's probably a good thing!:lol:
