Also, we made a vegetable soup last week with some nettles growing in a patch close our new place. I'm pretty excited to learn more about the wild foods growing in this area. Dandelion sauerkraut and maybe some nettle beer coming soon!

Springtime (foods) in the Appalachians
Went to the growers-only farmers market this past weekend and got some really good local stuff. On the cutting board are oyster mushrooms, spring onions, and most interesting of all - wild ramps (with the purple stems). I've never had them before, but they're really good. Too bad the season only lasts about two weeks.
