Hello, my name is Nick, … I came across your show on youtube because I was looking to positively identify sassafras… I would like to know more about plants as food….
If you search Sassafras you will find an article about that tree. Basically you are looking for a tree that has leaves that look like flat mittens, no teeth. The thumb can be on the left, the right, or the leaf can have two thumbs. You also want roots that smell like root beer.
I’m ready to purchase any DVD’s you are able to develop and really enjoy your YouTube series.
Are there good books that have color photos and sufficient info to identify edible plants, what parts are edible, and how they are prepared?
I live in the Tampa area and might attend a nearby class when you do one in that area.
Sadly that is lacking… because its rather difficult to do something that comprehensive and relevant and inexpensive. Regional books can be excellent. And for your area my website…
Wow! i looked at a couple of your videos. Very impressive, we are just starting to eat weeds. When we moved into this house, the first year we had what we thought were volunteer pumkin seeds that we through out in the back yard so we protected them in hopes of getting free pumkins, we were very disapointed we asked some of our farmer neighbors what these were, they called them wild cucubers. After looking at your video I think these are what we have. I’d like to send you a picture and see if this is the ivy gourd.
Sure send it along…
Hi,
Just wondering if the DVD you mentioned is available yet.
Thanks,
Chris

The set is almost ready.

I would give you more but I only got two.I have learnd more in the past few hours than I have in ten years with field guides and other items, Thanks. There is more Id like to but have to get back to reading I can sleep tomarow.
Hey there Green Deane,
Just wanted to tell you how much I adore you. I love your YouTube channel. The content is captivating and always pleasant. I wish you could clone yourself and work in every high school in America with your own class. Your videos leave me wishing you were my next door neighbor! Hugs and kisses!
Where’s the book! I want the book
(ps check out createspace.com) they will let you self publish for free, they print on an as needed basis, folks order it and they print it. You have your photo’s and your text done, just put it in a format.
I don’t work for them but I have used them, so now when I see wonderful things that would be great to have in book form (because you can’t always get online, my aunt has a house with NO wireless service for 30 miles and is still using dial up) I mention them, a book would be wonderful!
Thanks,
Kim

Just watched the your watercress video and wondered if the watercress can absorb any of the toxicity of the water hemlock growing so close to it? By the way I am enjoying your videos immensely and learning much . Haven’t foraged much yet but gearing up to start. Free food is awesome.
This question has come up before. The answer is no.
