Having tea with Loki
Green has finally decided to grace us with his presence. It feels like it has been too long.
With Spring comes the wild foods I so enjoy. Friends joined us to eat our first bounty of wild onions.
The dish of wild onion, carrots and potatoes slow cooked in hard apple cider and minced garlic can out divine. We served it with pork ribs smothered in apple bbq sauce.
We have had a few people point out a bush to us. Mountain tea, is the only explanation I received. Someone said it was Ironwort. But I am not completely sure of that. It looks nothing like it. I thought elderberry, but the taste wasn't right.
What I do know is that is makes a wonderfully minty tea. I was told that when the berries come in and if I can get to it before the deer, it is even better. We made some fresh, and dried out more for later.
And we are of course super happy to introduce you all to Urth's Umbra's little bull calf.
Loki
He has been attempting to live up to his name, already.
