You've seen them before. They are those sticky things that cling to your boots and lower pant legs. But wait. Before you rip them up take a second or even a
third look. Because Cleavers are known as being a traditional spring tonic for a couple of reasons. First, Cleavers are what herbalists refer to as alteratives.
Alteratives are herbs that gradually restore the proper function of the body and increase health and vitality.
After a long, cold winter, fresh Spring Cleavers are just the thing to get the lymph moving and eliminating waste and toxins from the body. That aside, this is another tasty wild herb that makes a GREAT! pesto.
We'll foraging for these as well as Pheasant Back and Platterful Mushrooms, Wild Leek Bulbs, Nettles, Day Lily shoots and more.

Crown Tipped Coral
These delicate mushrooms appear from early Summer to mid-November and are found on well rotted hardwood. It's best to harvest them when they are white as they
tend to turn bitter with age. They sautee very quickly but serve as a wonderful garnish to most meals especially fish. It is best to check their fragrance first as there are some "smelly" look-alikes that grow
on the ground. You want to avoid these.
It's the time of year when the mushrooms are kicking in. Summer Oysters, Platterfuls, Angel Wings, Dryad Saddles, not to forget a wide variety of wild edible plants.
Stratford is on the doorstep of Nature's Bounty. Come along and join us!

Alongside the Oysters are Pheasant Backs, Platterful and Crowned Tipped Coral Mushrooms. Add to the mix Wild Watercress, Pineapple Weed, Nettles and Day Lily Shoots. It's the time of year that makes foraging

Father's Day Foraging
One of the most healthy plants you can consume is the Nettle. We will be harvesting
three types of this amazing species. The Slender Nettle, Wood Nettle and the non-stinging Clearweed. All help to reduce inflammation,
lower blood pressure, aid in blood sugar control and are also used to treat Hay Fever. On the culinary side the recipes are endless. Nettle Soup,
Nettle Pesto, Nettle Tea and, believe it or not, Nettle Beer to name but a few.

It's the beginning of Summer and what better way to usher it in by hiking our beautiful forests to search for wild edible plants and mushrooms. We will

Afterward we return to Stratford Tea Leaves for an upscale meal that includes Wild Nettle

Pineapple Weed
When you think of weeds you naturally think . . . Garden Pests! Here at Puck's Plenty
we don't regard this plant as a weed even though it can be found practically everywhere. Waste sights, sidewalk cracks, parking lots. We'll sidestep
those areas and concentrate on Nature's grassy plains instead. This herb (because that's what it is) has a wonderful scent that translates
into an amazing tea. Moreover, thanks to a chef we took out last year, we found that boiled in equal parts cane sugar and water, it makes
an incredible substitue for maple syrup. It's absolutely delicious. Like many other wild edibles, after you see it for the
first time you see it again and again, throughout the Summer. So bring paper bags, small knives, scissors and spades as we
search for these along with wild watercress, day lily buds and flowers, wood nettles, not to forget fungi such as oyster mushrooms, ash
boletes and pheasant back. They're all out there on beautiful trails only a short car ride from Stratford.

The arrival of the Oyster Mushroom signals the beginning of the Summer harvest of choice wild fungi. Rated by chefs worldwide as one of the prizes of the
culinary world, the Oyster blesses us with its presence right through until mid Autumn. There's a sweetness about them that complements a wide variety of dishes and makes the hunt well worth your while.
Alongside the Oysters are Pheasant Backs, Platterful and Crowned Tipped Coral Mushrooms. Add to the mix Wild Watercress, Pineapple Weed, Nettles and Day Lily Shoots. It's the time of year that makes foraging hard to resist.
Start time: 10:00 am
Where: Packham Road Sports Complex, Stratford, ON N5A 6S4
Cost: $35.00/person
Tickets can be purchased through e-transfer or PayPal. For more information phone 519-271-3726 or email us at pucksplenty@gmail.com

Father's Day Foraging
One of the most healthy plants you can consume is the Nettle. We will be harvesting
three types of this amazing species. The Slender Nettle, Wood Nettle and the non-stinging Clearweed. All help to reduce inflammation,
lower blood pressure, aid in blood sugar control and are also used to treat Hay Fever. On the culinary side the recipes are endless. Nettle Soup,
Nettle Pesto, Nettle Tea and, believe it or not, Nettle Beer to name but a few.
Along the trails we will also be searching for Turkey Tail Mushrooms, Pheasant Back Mushrooms, Wild Watercress and Day Lily Flower Buds.

Pineapple Weed
When you think of weeds you naturally think . . . Garden Pests! Here at Puck's Plenty
we don't regard this plant as a weed even though it can be found practically everywhere. Waste sights, sidewalk cracks, parking lots. We'll sidestep
those areas and concentrate on Nature's grassy plains instead. This herb (because that's what it is) has a wonderful scent that translates
into an amazing tea. Moreover, thanks to a chef we took out last year, we found that boiled in equal parts cane sugar and water, it makes
an incredible substitue for maple syrup. It's absolutely delicious. Like many other wild edibles, after you see it for the
first time you see it again and again, throughout the Summer. So bring paper bags, small knives, scissors and spades as we
search for these along with wild watercress, day lily buds and flowers, wood nettles, not to forget fungi such as oyster mushrooms, ash
boletes and pheasant back. They're all out there on beautiful trails only a short car ride from Stratford.
