I have to try eating them now!<br /><br />Here's a photo I took last year of a trout lily in Toronto: http://www.flickr.com/photos/deafdj/3474819284/<br /><br />TorontovoreAlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05155534322029676096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4444340959264831070.post-25674863415422758452010-04-28T20:13:36.133-04:002010-04-28T20:13:36.133-04:00Dear Jenn:
We are so much alike. We are the same ...Dear Jenn:<br />We are so much alike. We are the same age and share the same interests. I found your blog because I was looking to see if wild leeks, fiddleheads and morels were ready yet. I just graduated from Georgian College for Culinary Skills-Chef Training and am currently located in Annan. I've got a sweet place where I saw leeks on Easter weekend and was planning on going back there tmw when I'm done working at the nursery I'm living at. I spent the whole day working with hostas, so I'm too tired to go today. I will keep you posted as to my finds. My mom has 100 acres just outside Mount Forest with a coniferous and deciduous forest so I'm going to head there on Friday to check it out too. I'm sorry to hear about you losing your mom and friend. She would be so proud of you now. Chin up! The summer will soon be here. Keep cooking! That always cheers me up. <br /><br />Best regards,<br /><br />MirandaMirandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06105295438664095770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4444340959264831070.post-66533574715944179072010-04-28T09:03:44.604-04:002010-04-28T09:03:44.604-04:00This truly is a fascinating post!

One of these days I'll have to recreate this experience.Fresh Local and Besthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06975218501433243628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4444340959264831070.post-27180500314707589322010-04-27T11:36:12.609-04:002010-04-27T11:36:12.609-04:00Really creative and fascinating post.

You've inspired me to learn more about the local flora and try foraging here!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4444340959264831070.post-19141139629637213922010-04-27T00:33:01.606-04:002010-04-27T00:33:01.606-04:00Congratulations for being one of the other 23.

We do this a lot in Greece and maybe we have different kinds of wild greens but making pies or cooking with them is an amazing experience.Ivyhttp://kopiaste.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4444340959264831070.post-29526217655296855522010-04-26T12:13:23.261-04:002010-04-26T12:13:23.261-04:00Hey Heiko,

I weed them out from my land where they are very invasive, but might eat them in future. I am such a reluctant weeder, because I keep thinking: "ooh, but I could eat that..."Heikohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17999245793961798308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4444340959264831070.post-68630024441535734792010-04-26T11:38:02.335-04:002010-04-26T11:38:02.335-04:00Wow.
