  1. My friends and I growing up would suck the nectar out of #lilacs. They were delicious and edible! (But save some for the bees.)

    30+ Lilac Recipes (Yes, Lilacs Are Edible!)

    By Ashley Adamant
    Updated Apr 19, 2026

    "Edible lilacs (Syringa vulgaris) are one of the most delightful surprises of the spring kitchen, and yes, you really can eat them. Between the fragrant flowers and the short bloom window, lilacs have become one of my favorite things to preserve and cook with each May on our Vermont homestead."

    [...]

    "Lilacs start the edible flower season around here, but our homestead has delicious blooms to enjoy all summer long. We’re foraging dandelions for #dandelion flower recipes at the same time as the lilacs, then wild #violets come on for violet flower recipes, and #elderflowers show up a few weeks later for elderflower recipes. The old perennial patch of #BeeBalm by the kitchen door is edible and medicinal too, so the homestead kitchen stays fragrant with one bloom or another from May right through August."

  2. My 3rd #VietnameseCoriander container is now totally full of happy plants! I propagated these ones from my main repurposed bathtub planter, in June. They are left outside in Winter & they survive through snow/ice. We harvest them year round on an as needed basis.

    ⚠️DO NOT put these into the ground. Grow in containers so you can control them. They spread fast, if put into ground.

  7. De la joieta de llibre "Cocina bellotera para la era postpetrolera" de César Lema.

    (Si el compreu, feu-ho directament a l'autor, perquè hi ha gent venent-ne còpies sense el seu permís)

  8. I've been having fun the past couple days checking out and adding to beta.fallingfruit.org - an amazing resource for foragers the world over. I'm not adding my fave spots because I selfishly would like to keep them sekrit, mwahaha, and hopefully I'll get over that because seriously, there's wild food in abundance all over the city and this scarcity mindset does nobody any good.
