The Peak Time for Picking

Dear Friends,
This is the peak of the summer and one of best times for picking wild edibles growing around us. One of the most prevalent edibles (and perhaps the most under-appreciated) is the dandelion.

In the previous video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UebH2Pb-18s) Sergei discussed how you can use dandelion greens in smoothies, salads, and other dishes to reap all of their nutritional goodness.

And what about the flowers? Dandelion flowers are extremely nutritious; they are an excellent source of Vitamin D, similar to their greens. In addition, dandelion flowers help detoxify our inner organs, and alkalize the body. The following instructional and entertaining video demonstrates three fun ways to eat dandelion flowers.

Sergei’s New Rap Song

While harvesting wild edibles, it is wise to exercise caution and make sure you pick only edible plants. If you are not sure that something is edible, don’t eat it! Here is Sergei’s new hilarious music video about this:
