🌱 There’s nothing quite like the excitement of those first green sprouts pushing up through the earth after a long winter. It’s the perfect time to start foraging, but it’s so important to move slowly and mindfully. Before you harvest anything, always be absolutely sure of your identification. Some plants have toxic lookalikes, and when it comes to foraging, caution and respect are everything. Ethical harvesting matters just as much: 🍃 Only take what you truly need. 🍃 Harvest in a way that allows the plants to continue thriving. 🍃 Leave plenty behind for pollinators, wildlife, and future growth. 🍃 Always move with gratitude and respect for the land. Have you noticed any of these spring herbs popping up where you live yet? What are your favorite wild herbs to forage this time of year?
