Blue Elderberry (Sambucus cerulea) and Wild Plum (Prunus sp.) from harvesting this summer near the Nez Perce reservation with @mountain.manders and @walkingwithwesternwildflowers Since then I made Elderberry Chokecherry syrup with the Elderberries, and Plum fruit leather by squishing the plums in cheesecloth and squeezing out their pulp, then cooking down the pulp a bit and drying on parchment paper. Michael Ridge then showed me how to save the plum pits to replant by putting them in a five gallon bucket and letting it fill up with water, where the skins and pits separate. The fruit leather is tart, but when I was out in the wilderness last month, I enjoyed the fruit leather with pine nuts, broken up over morning oatmeal, or with peanut butter, believe it or not. #wildfoodlove #plums #elderberry #wildfoods #plantback #wildtending #feralfruit (at Kamiah, Idaho) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4vl60DhaKV/?igshid=1ppcibytqqpq7
