WILD - FORAGED SALAD. While waiting for things to move forward I decided to do some foraging. Hopefully I will be back up and running at some point in the future showing photos and creating some lovely delicious meals for happy customers. For the time being I'm sitting back and waiting for news.

All collected in the Black Forest, Germany… I am amazed at what is around us and edible, full of nutrients, medicinal properties and life force energy. Young fresh beech tree leaves, hazelnut leaves, germander speedwell, yarrow, dandelion, spignel, herb-robert, water forget-me-knot, wild thyme, Dog rose petals… and the list goes on and on..
