The fear of poisoning one’s self was not even an issue as children and we survived (GenX Strong 🤣), but as adults we have been conditioned to think everything outside the norm, and what is presented to us by the mainstream is downright dangerous. In the PNW I learned early on the difference between poison oak and ivy and look alike plants that are benign or beneficial. I’m still learning about which wild grapes are safe. Water hemlock has always been a fear, but I just don’t eat wild carrots or anything similar. I want to learn about the differences though, and will as I traverse up the hills on this new journey. Thank you to all of you for your vast amounts of knowledge. ❤❤❤

I have been experiencing such medical illnesses due to nerve damage from a horrible traumatic accident. Long story short the health care system has not been kind to me. I recently started growing all I can and I can say WOW 😊 all this has greatly helped me not to stress what they say is going on and to remember my roots!! Thank you so very much. ❤
