As a forager, Tom Elpel is one of my favorite authors!! He also wrote a book called, Foraging the Mountain West, and it taught me so much! One of the best things I learned was about identifying the mustard family which has over 3,200 species, all of which are edible. He teaches that all you need to know to identify all these edible plants in the mustard family is that they have 4 petals with 6 stamens--4 tall and 2 short. The mint family has a similar identification trick. Always thankful to find someone with similar interest! I'm lovin this post and also following! 💚
