I Eat Flowers!

Each Spring my children know that they will get a random video from me when I find the first violet of the season. It simply shows my excitement of finding and eating a violet. They have an earthy taste. There are so many flower varieties that are tasty in a salad. My favorite is Cosmos with a little balsamic drizzle as in the photo.

Tips for flower picking/eating:

• always pick where you are certain no chemicals have been used on the ground.

• always pick in nature at knee height or more to avoid animal urine. Violets are low to the ground so be mindful of their location.

• don’t pick on the side of the road where dust or vehicle fumes, etc. could have been absorbed into the flower.

• all of these tips apply to berry picking too.
