I wasn't sure whether a tree nearby was the good one to pick or not. Thank you for being very precise about the leaves, I'm now sure I can pick it!

Hello..I am from Indonesia ,, here the plant is not commonly eaten, people think this plant is only a weed, after I found out that this plant can be eaten, I tried frying the flowers, but why is it so bitter?

Can you forage just anywhere?!

[@UKWILDCRAFTS]

Not everywhere. Pretty much all public lands are ok to forage. Private land you need permission. And it’s best not to forage on SSSI sites (Sites of special scientific interest) usually because there’s rare plants of animals there. It’s a good idea to check the gov.uk website to see what and where you can forage :)

@@UKWILDCRAFTS thanks a lot for taking the time to reply :)

Dont pick all the flowers or you'll get no fruits.

[@UKWILDCRAFTS]

I didn't 😊

There’s no danger of that elder grows like a weed there are easily over 2000 examples around my village alone.
