تدريب Shadowing: Foraging the U.S. Capitol - تعلم التحدث بالإنجليزية عبر الفيديو

I'm here at the U.S.

Capitol in Washington, D.C about to lead a foraging walk.

And today I'm going to share with you 10 easy to identify beginner plants that are growing right here at the U.S.

Capitol.

There's not just nuts in the office, there's nuts on the U.S lawn too.

This is hazelnut growing right here.

I'm sitting in a bed of ground ivy.

This is a weed growing in most lawns and aromatic.

Once you smell this, you'll never forget this smell.

It's great food and medicine.

Mulberry.

Of course, many of you know that berries are edible, but the leaves, when they're young and tender, quite good.

Enjoy.

All these leaves are edible.

It looks like the landscapers missed a weed right here.

Dandelion, a wonderful bidder, edible from the tip of the flowers down to the tip of the roots.

And nestled among here we have what we call an LVM

little brown mushroom this is not beginner food right here thank

you to the human beings who plant trees this is linden close relative of basswood the young

and tender leaves are edible the flowers you can harvest in the summer

and make a nice sleepy time tea

and then in the fall you can harvest the seeds and according to Alexis Nicole Nelson,

black forager, you can roast these and make a chocolate-like flavor.

Some would say don't eat any of this food leave it for the animals

but they're literally mowing over this food with a lawnmower.

This is plantago or plantain and it's a wonderful food and medicine.

It can help you go poop via the fibrous seed heads

and just a wonderful green source for all the ways in which you'd eat a green.

There's not just weeds to eat, there's hundreds of pounds of food falling to the sidewalks most every fall at the U.S.

Capitol.

This mighty oak behind me produces the mighty acorn, which I love to eat.

Coming soon.

Three sassafras trees in a row right here at the Capitol.

And you know what?

You can eat these leaves.

Look at the thorns on the trifoliate orange.

You have to be careful when you're picking these.

The most northern citrus that I know.

A treat for those of us who are up north.

Not ready yet.

Just got another month or so.

They recently mowed, but these violets, they made it through.

These are a tender green that I like to eat raw.

Of course, a wonderful medicine too.

And right next to this, check out this little white mushroom.

Who knows, maybe it's inedible.

And you know what?

The number one rule of foraging is you only eat something if you're 100% sure, and I'm not sure at all.

So this mushroom stays here at the US Capitol.

ginkgo leaves, unmistakable for any other leaf that grows around here.

Once these turn yellow in the fall and they're starting to fall off, wonderful time to harvest them for tea.

So there you have it dear friends.

You can see food and medicine is growing abundantly even here at the U.S.

Capitol.

And I bet if you tune in you will see

that it is growing freely and abundantly right outside of your doors and in your community.

What do you think?

Is it time to critically think, to question our societal norms and structures, to really break free from the systems that no longer serve.

One plant at a time we can reconnect and we can live a life of deep meaning and purpose.

The lives that we truly want to.
