Autumn is approaching on the 22nd September and I can't help but enjoy the beautiful changes in nature and on the planet. Now is the time for us to enjoy our favourite berries (rosehips above) and harvest our luscious herbs and vegetables. Root vegetables begin to thrive as the beautiful autumn leaves greet the pavements.
Now is the time to mix your herbal medicine concoctions of raw honey, orange, onions and garlic. It's time to light some beeswax candles and re-align yourself with all your surroundings. Get out those comfy jumpers and blankets and enjoy herbal teas to keep you cosy at sunset. Autumn is full of curiosity and wonder. Here are some pictures I took on a foraging walk in Enfield, London. Taking in my surroundings and observing the natures changes from flower blossoms turning to berries. Here they are!
Horsetail, retail price is £8 per mini bottle. A great tonic for colon and hair!
Hawthorn berries are good for coughs and colds when made into a syrup
Stinging Nettle Seeds great for alcohol and good for energy drinks!
Dock leaves are nature's cabbage, once cooked down with lots of seasonings to avoid the bitter taste!
;)
I can't help but scream the amazing things I have planned for the blog in the next few months, just in the planning stages! Stay tuned!
