 If you’re new to foraging, this is a lovely one to start with. In season now through June, you can make a whole load of lovely things with these beautiful flowers including the classic cordial (and lollies 😉) Only pick as many as you need, as the flowers turn into elderberries (another foraging favourite) but also an important food source for many birds. The elder tree was much revered in England, for it was believed to be inhabited by a spirit - the elder mother - therefore bad luck to take wood from this tree. Every part of the tree is useful, though all apart from the flowers and berries can be poisonous, like the elder mother, harmful and healing. Check out @woodlandtrust for some lovely recipes. Off to enjoy an ice lolly today - happy bank holiday all 🌞#foraging #wildfood #hedgerow #wildfoodlove #hedgerowharvest #foragedfood #seasonaleating #foragingandfeasting #aseasonalyear #elderflowers #gingerandpicklesnutrition
