Growing up here in the lower part of Oregon, wild berries are everywhere in the summer. I live smack dab in the middle of berry central. As a child I would hop on my bike, ans ride the mile or so to my best friend's house, and on a bike it should have only taken me afew minutes to get there, but I never seem to get there in less than a 45 minutes or so. I would stop at every berry patch, blackberry, blackcaps, wild raspberry, and my favorite, wild strawberries. They look like alpine strawberries, very small, but the purfume is intoxicating. The flavor is strawbery from the store times five, and when they are fully ripe the sweetness is intense, that is if you can beat the birds, and animals to them. I have not found them for a long time:o(, but I did buy some organic alpine strawberries for my garden this year!!! Ah, alittle taste of youth. Happy picking everyone. Get out there, and fall in love with your food, earn it, and it will be more special than you can imagine. Thanks for the great video, wild food collecting is near, and dear to my heart.

I was so excited over that. I now have a book on wild edible plants and hope to identify many more weeds to eat. Last summer I picked purslane out of our garden to put in my green smoothies.

When I was little my grandparents had a walnut tree in their back yard, it was humngous tree and no one but me could climb it :) We also had a lot of apple, pear, plum, and sour cherry trees, I use to live in paradise... I miss it. My favorite food to pick would be gooseberries, currants, and walnuts.
