>>623462I'm in Texas (Houston) and use Foraging Texas quite a bit. The guy there is the next best thing to learning from an expert in the field. The rest of it is just learning about wild plants in general - not only for eating but for their various uses (medicine, tanning, soap making, bug repellent, etc).
In my area, the wild persimmons are finally coming in depending on how much water and sun they've been getting. I need to go on another run to get enough for some good wild persimmon butter. Elder berries are just about done and I have a few to juice and jam. I still have wild blackberries in the freezer from last spring. I save them for the holidays. Also, there's a ton of mustang grapes around here. I made a few jars of jam this year. We also have a load of hackberries that are in right now...I may try running some through the vitamix to make energy bars.
