Some wild plants are not just useful. They actually taste good.
Craig Caudill shares seven wild edible plants with real flavor, including mulberry, persimmon, redbud blossoms, wood sorrel, blackberry, pawpaw, and wild garlic.
This is foraging, bushcraft, outdoor skills, and nature awareness in the real world. Always learn a plant well before eating anything from the wild.

Hunny suckels I remember as a kid
I loved mulberries as a child, my hands & feet were colored purple all the time. I also liked the green mulberry too.
Thanks for sharing 👍
Have you ever tried Mayapple?
The young leaves of mulberry trees have this white sap in them that is mildly hallucinogenic.
I never heard of that papa one. I got to try one sometime! I have a persimmon tree. They need to be extra ripe deep red and very soft! Super yummy!
Today made wood sorrel drink. Best if made with hot water. Let cool lemon tart taste
I wish mulbrries grew where I live!
We have a wild persimmon tree, they ripe around September, still looking for a pawpaw tree 😢
Blackberries were usually right down the road on our way to catch the bus for school. My foster mom would have us pick them and she made a blackberry pie. Think that’s the first time i ever ate one. Both foster parents have now passed away. Sure miss them.
Honeysuckle
I’ve picked them all, I have a friend that makes Redbud jelly, and persimmon pudding my mom made was so good.
My dad and I would pick wild raspberries. Delicious
Sorrel is sour, like a lemon. And if you eat a persimmon before, it is very soft, you will hate it.
Didn’t list any mints?
What about wild onions? Just pick ut from yards that don't use pesticides
Wild garlic is trying to take over our backyard!!!
Someone must’ve planted it a long time ago, because it keeps popping up, here and there.😩
