It is medicine season! Seriously. Now I don’t mean that it is time to line up at the doctor’s office for vaccines or prescriptions or any of that nonsense stuff. Dear me no. I am talking about all the goodies popping up from the earth, wild for the most part, that just might serve to heal our woes.

While I was up at my cottage in early July, when it was a gazillion degrees outside, I decided it was the perfect conditions for a soup. Why? Because that day I had harvested a very special ingredient from the nearby woods which makes a soup extra powered healthy.

Once again I have been reminded that all the world’s a pharmacy. Remember last Spring how I made a whole big whopper of a deal about My Green Thumb?

What is it about dandelion’s that make us think of our childhood. I remember putting dandelions under each other’s chins in the school yard to determine who liked butter (random). And who hasn’t made a wish on the white puff ball dandelion seeds? Well- I haven’t in years ever since I went to make a wish on one, accidentally inhaled, and found myself choking which culminated in me tossing my cookies in Heather Lawrence’s driveaway when we were about six years old. We all have our dandelion memories…
All that just to tell you that they are more than a garden pest and a children’s choking hazard. Dandelions are pure medicine!

Chaga mushroom. King of all the mushrooms. Maybe even king of all the land.
I first learned of these mushrooms last summer when I was kicking it Raw In The Woods with David Wolfe. I have since eaten loads, been intrigued, read heaps and finally made the time to escape up into the woods with my snow shoes, a knife and a trusty (and well informed) side-kick to hunt for some of these here bad boys.
This video from Daniel Vitalis revealed what we needed to know.
