Hello from Waltham Abbey, UK

Post: # 288872Post Gav74 »

Hello everyone.

I've been an occasional forager of limited knowledge for a long time, but I've recently decided to update my skills and knowledge and try to learn a lot more.
I'm blogging about it along the way (I won't include a link just yet as I'm not sure if that's allowed).
I'm hoping to learn lots more from here.

Hi Gav, welcome to ish :wave:

Sorry I can't help identify your weed in the other post, but sure someone will be along soon to help.

Look forward to sharing your foraging wisdom - I haven't foraged since I mistook Lady's Fingers for Sorrel :shaking:

Thanks guys.

bonniethomas06, getting plant ID wrong can be pretty scary even if there's no harm done, but we never stop learning. Even those of us that have done it for a while have doubts sometimes. ;)
