RE: TEACHING THE NEXT GENERATION REAL SKILLS - FORAGING
It can be amazing to blow someone's mind when they are wondering what plant they are looking at and you have the answer right there, not to mention useful to keep people away from poisonous plants. Still amazes me how many people can't identify Poison Ivy or Oak...
I remember once when a man told me that I could eat some food in his garden. I picked about 5 kinds of "weeds" and chowed down, to his amazement.
My brother did this same thing actually...only he was 4 at the time, didn't have permission to go in a garden, and had to have his stomach pumped afterwards. I'm sure you were much more successful ;)
Much more!
