I'm really interested in foraging and the medicinal properties of plants in the wild so I really enjoyed this video. Such gorgeous countryside too, love the trees. Thanks for another great video Jason! :) P.S. Ticks aren't cute. lol

[@JasonRuppVlog]

I enjoyed it because of that too! It is helpful to learn the medicinal properties. Thanks so much.

[@Ellemenopea97]

I just LOVE that you eat it all fearlessly.

[@JasonRuppVlog]

I loved this tour. She really taught us a lot.

[@rethaecha752]

[@MrsJHarrington]

I wish more people would forage in a way Jason, much better on the environment I say, so many medicinal qualities in plants that many people don’t know! Great video my friend Jason, always good to see you and Mom too!

[@JasonRuppVlog]

I agree. To be healthy is to be with nature. Thank you back my friend.

[@MrsJHarrington]

I grew up picking wild plants and herbs with my grandma who has an old order Mennonite we would go camping with our dad who as a Mennonite he taught us what plants can be used as tea and medicine and can be used for cooking and baking. Our great great great great great grandparents use wild plants and herbs in their homes for tea and medicine and cooking and baking. Now I am teaching my kids and my sisters and brothers kids why wild plants and herbs can be used for.

[@KillItandGrillIt]

That was a beautiful park and yes I would have wanted to go swimming to.

[@JasonRuppVlog]

Yes! The water would have been ice cold though.

[@KillItandGrillIt]

@@JasonRuppVlog That never stopped me before. In the texas hill country Cayon Lake dam spill water comes out at 64 degrees and I have no problem with that. I don't care I'd jump in lol.

[@JasonRuppVlog]

It is so refreshing. It is worth it once you get in..

[@pauls5981]

A educational video on plants always amazed me if you know what the plants do and can't do And what u can eat great vid👍👍

[@JasonRuppVlog]

It was all very eye opening for us. Sarah lead our group so well. Thank you Paul!

[@jover355]

Some dandelion flowers are sweet and some are not.. just depends if it's been dried out in the sun or not. The flowers that have the darker yellow are the sweeter ones.

[@JasonRuppVlog]

Thanks for explaining Jeff!!

[@jover355]

Wildman Steve Brill does lots of foraging walk throughs in New York. He'll be in Manhattan on August 3rd. There's lot of youtube videos of him as well. www.wildmanstevebrill.com/tour-calendar

[@lesleypettit9461]

You have a knack for rooting out adventures off the well worn path. 😎

[@JasonRuppVlog]

Thank you!

[@emersone5333]

Yummy grass

[@JasonRuppVlog]

Mmmmmm

[@boomerwithbadhip2603]

I didn't catch which tree it was she said was also known as the lettuce tree with the asymmetrical leaves at the base. Do you remember what they were? They looked like either birch or popular leaves.

[@JasonRuppVlog]

I'm not quite sure, but you can message Sarah on Instagram. Her link is in the description. Thanks for watching!

[@sarahkelsen6854]

Big Boy Bushcraft Basswood / Linden ☺️

[@Jonathan-mt9up]

That tick is a lone star tick, identifiable by the white spot on its back. It does not carry Lyme's disease, but is a vector for STARI, which has similar symptoms to Lyme's and should be taken seriously.

[@Nueng-Andres]

I can see you love the taste of that flower😂

[@JasonRuppVlog]

It was bitter -- but I can take it.

[@rmanga4171]

was this taken in march it looks like it

[@JasonRuppVlog]

You are about right. I think it was April.

[@johnsayman2271]

Hey there neighbors! I live about 20 mins south of Ithaca

[@MAXH-ui8cn]

I hope they are all organic plants, no chemicals on them..

[@JasonRuppVlog]

I think they are.

[@JasonRuppVlog]

I was wondering about dog and deer pee too.

[@MAXH-ui8cn]

@Chubby Cox That's how soil get nutrition :)

[@JasonRuppVlog]

It is all nature.

[@mnunezhk]

i wonder how many animals have pissed and what on that lawn

[@JasonRuppVlog]

Ha ha. All natural.

[@dederamo6723]

Does anyone know of a forging course in Ithaca NY that i could join? thank you in advance...gypsy

[@JasonRuppVlog]

Is this one still going?

[@edstraker8451]

.. So, do you have any magic mushrooms? No... And over here we have a double decker bus banging a chicken.

[@JasonRuppVlog]

Ha ha. I need another forage trip with her and then she night tell me the secrets of the magic mushroom.

[@nadinealvarez3456]

Is foraging legal/allowed/ethical at buttermilk? I thought it was an ecological reserve because it's a state park.

[@JasonRuppVlog]

I think the foraging part was on private land. Thank you for enjoying the video. 👌❤

[@comicmcfly]

Mmmm.. flower eating.. I guess 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

[@JasonRuppVlog]

I see flower. I eat flower.

[@comicmcfly]

@@JasonRuppVlog i see weed. i smoke weed lmao jk

[@jamesnilsen6931]

Broome county ny here. There is to many snowflakes and liberals in Ithaca. I've done everything in the video for 7 days much like les Stroud. We need the survival part not the talking part, all this is.... cool and interesting video tho you still teach a lot 👍🇺🇸

[@dru5997]

9:38 lol

[@timmartino5314]

Hmm...many beautiful girls in Ithaka...guy..

[@JasonRuppVlog]

So many healthy beautiful women. 👍

[@atomskpk]

My Friend Sam Davies Is From Ithaca, he allways says ithaca is gorges

[@JasonRuppVlog]

That's what all the locals say. 😄😄 It really is amazingly beautiful. Loved it.

[@samueldavies1545]

Hey I am Sam Davies I actually think Ithaca has too many homeless individuals and I lost my virginity in the worst way there! Sorry!

[@JasonRuppVlog]

Ha ha. So sorry.

[@DJ_afroASH]

Manager “SARAH, bob called in and we have a tour just find some stuff in the field and say it’s edible people will believe anything” JASON “ would you put that on a pizza?” Hahahahaha

[@JasonRuppVlog]

Ha ha Sarah really got us all eating weeds. 😀

[@sarahkelsen6854]

DJ afroASH what do you eat ?? And who do you trust to deem your food healthy ?? Big Ag? Chemical companies? Not sure why you’re picking on me, come on a hike if you’re skeptical!

[@DJ_afroASH]

Sarah Kelsen not picking non you at all was simply making a joke. I would love to go somewhere and just eat it. Knowledge is power and you have it. If I’m ever in your area I’ll happily take your tour and learn from you.

[@immnottellingyouwho820]

Never eat Cattails growing in stagnant water, or for other plants in general.

[@JasonRuppVlog]

Thanks for the tip.

[@lynnesimmons3112]

It could be very informative, but that guy feels the need to interrupt all the time with nothing to add.
