Reminiscing the bloom we had here on the hill, now they have mostly gone to seed. Showcased by lots of thinning around the (s) this past winter and a rainy spring. The meadow was buzzing and so was I! This land speaks and tells a long history of stewardship…I am infinitely grateful to be in relationship with it, and honored to be a steward and advocate for it.

“Camas is one of the most important traditional foods in Salish country. The small bulb-like roots are dug and roasted, eaten fresh or boiled, and can be dried for use as a winter food. Open grasslands, or “camas prairies,” were traditionally maintained by families and were managed with fire by aerating the soil with digging sticks, and by weeding out unwanted species including the poisonous Death Camas.”

Seems I’m tasty 😋 Syrphid fly, Syrphus ribesii, a common hoverfly. A helpful garden pollinator whose larvae feed on aphids. Males have the eyes meeting on the top of the head, whilst females have their eyes widely separated.

Oregon Fawn Lily (Erythronium oregonum)
Recommended only to observe and admire, not harvest; however, the roots and corm have traditionally been used as a poultice for skin diseases and boils.
Bulbs and roots can be eaten raw, cooked or dried for later use…is not recommended…Potential toxicity -water should be drank after eating-, difficulty harvesting, slow growing, pretty as an ornamental.
"Erythronium bulbs were an important food for the Kwakiutl (Boas, 1921). They were quite important to a number of Native American tribes, and were dried in large quantities for winter use.”

! My first time making wine I decided to try a couple different methods. The left one is steam juiced and I added a store bought yeast. The one on the right was juiced with a press and I didn’t add any yeast, figured to let the from the elderberries do it’s thing. The one I added yeast to originally had an airlock that wasn’t up to par and I woke up to it exploding the next morning! I put on a different airlock and so far so good, it’s been extremely active. Excited to see where this goes as well as try out more brews with different locally wildcrafted ingredients. Cheers!

love! 😍 .

Though both edible and medicinal, Trillium should never be wildcrafted/harvested because doing so may kill the plant, or it may take many years to regrow.

Trillium root was considered to be a sacred herb, used to facilitate childbirth and to treat other female problems by the women of many Native American tribes. An infusion of the root is used in the treatment of cramps and a common name for the plant, birthroot, originated from its use to promote menstruation. Many Pacific Northwest tribes (Karok, Lummi, Paiute, and others) have used a decoction of the fresh or dried root juice as a remedy for boils and sore eyes. Trillum root is used as an alternative medicine and may have antiseptic, antispasmodic, diuretic, emmenagogue, and ophthalmic properties.

Made some homes for our ! The two smaller ones are on stakes and can be moved around/stuck right in your garden. The larger one (needs finishing touches/to have the gaps filled in) is mounted underneath our south facing deck overlooking the newly planted bed. Protected from rain and warmed by the sun we welcome our native pollinator friends to their cushy new home!
