The Reishi
Along with the Turkey Tail the Reishi Mushroom is one of the top five medicinal mushrooms
on Earth. One of its properties, Polysaccharides (or long chains of carbohydrates), in Reishi could increase longevity. One of the most
well-known effects of Reishi is its ability to enhance immune function through its effects on white blood cells. White blood cells are
cells of the immune system which help fight infectious disease and foreign invaders. One study demonstrated that Reishi can increase
the activity of a type of white blood cell called natural killer cells, while another study showed that Reishi can increase another
type of white blood cell called lymphocytes.
Reishi Tea:
To brew reishi mushroom tea at home using fresh or dried reishi fruiting bodies: Cut the mushrooms into strips or chunks.
Boil four cups of water for every 5 grams of dried or 25 to 30 grams of fresh reishi. Add the reishi, reduce the heat and
simmer for 2 hours.

Day Lily Flower Buds
These are one of our favourite Spring edibles. Best harvested when young before the flower
opens. Like many wild edibles they have two flavours. At first they taste like raw asparagus but then several seconds later an incredible
spicy flavour kicks in. By the way, once the flower opens you have another part of this plant to taste.
Along with these we will
be searching for Wild Leek Bulbs, Nettles, Pheasant Back Mushrooms and Summer Oyster Mushrooms.

The Reishi
Along with the Turkey Tail the Reishi Mushroom is one of the top five medicinal mushrooms
on Earth. One of its properties, Polysaccharides (or long chains of carbohydrates), in Reishi could increase longevity. One of the most
well-known effects of Reishi is its ability to enhance immune function through its effects on white blood cells. White blood cells are
cells of the immune system which help fight infectious disease and foreign invaders. One study demonstrated that Reishi can increase
the activity of a type of white blood cell called natural killer cells, while another study showed that Reishi can increase another
type of white blood cell called lymphocytes.
Reishi Tea:
To brew reishi mushroom tea at home using fresh or dried reishi fruiting bodies: Cut the mushrooms into strips or chunks.
Boil four cups of water for every 5 grams of dried or 25 to 30 grams of fresh reishi. Add the reishi, reduce the heat and
simmer for 2 hours.
