Harvesting the celery from the garden and storing Harvesting the celery from the garden and storing the last of the stalks in the fridge. They’re popular with our kids, so will be eaten soon. The leaves we decided to make into an herbal salt. Since they’re fibrous, we pre-chopped the leaves, then ground them up in the food processor. Measured them, and then measured an equal amount of sea salt. In this case, we ended up with 8 cups of each. Blended them well together, then laid them out in a cookie sheet and left it on the lowest heat with the stove door cracked to dry, stirring it occasionally to prevent it from drying into one hard cake. We decided to just try the celery on it’s own, and make some other salts on their own and mix and match to play with flavours and seasonings. For soups, meat rubs, salad dressings, dips. Anything really. Innovation steps in at every turn when you’re thinking about how to make the most use of all parts of food grown or gathered. #herbalsalt #celery #gathering #gatheringtheharvest #preservingtheharvest #foodpreservation #foodpreservationideas
Sorrel is a wonderful perennial edible. Just sour Sorrel is a wonderful perennial edible. Just sour enough to get your tastebuds going, adding zest to any salad. Our first snow arrived today and they’re still green and up for being harvested. #perennialgarden #perennials #perennialgreens #northerngardening #ottawavalley
Hearing from @amelia_fkw, what she shared privatel Hearing from @amelia_fkw, what she shared privately with us, and what she shares here, fills us both with deep gratitude. Profound gratitude. Knowing that our work, our way of being in the world waters dormant seeds within others. In turn, this is how it is for us too. Thank you. From Amelia: “ At the Sacred Gardener School, Steven will open your eyes to a different way of working with the land. He has filled our minds with the wisdom of his teachings, our hearts with love for the Earth and all that she provides, our bellies with nourishing wild meals that Megan creates and our spirits with the fire to spark change in our worlds. It has been such a transformative journey over these last two years and I will forever be grateful to Steven and Megan for teaching through living. Just spending time with them you will learn because it is how they live that is the lesson, in a way that is so sacred and beautiful you can feel it in the land as you arrive and as you do the work you will start to feel it in your body, as we are all one. “ Join us next spring at the Sacred Gardener School. We have opened a second session, as our first is full. #sacredgardener #sacredgardenerschool #wildculture #remembering
Thanks to a visit from our old buddy @lamykel we n Thanks to a visit from our old buddy @lamykel we now have a small jar of ready to eat black walnuts. She brought along a serious business of a nutcracker, they’d already had their thick hull taken off earlier. This kind of activity can be a meditative process, and a good thing to do with others or while listening to something. If you’re intensely goal oriented, this will frustrate you to no end. Patience and presence are required to enjoy the process and to taste this nut! #wildfood #wildharvest #blackwalnut #communityharvest #meditation #meditationinnature #meditationthroughmovement #movementmeditation
