Wash, dress, eat. Gather my lance.

Roughleaf Dogwood (Cornus drummondii), a common shrub #native to the central US that can grow from seed or from root sprouts. The abundant fruits in late summer/early autumn are a terrific source of carbohydrates for migrating #birds seeking #fruits to help fatten up for #migration. Today I noticed a #SummerTanager using its #hover #gleaning behavior to pluck the fruits. That's one more satisfied customer, bulking up for its impending sojourn to #Peru!

We usually talk about #foraging in the context of wild plants, not cultivated crops. But as I was walking back to the station I passed a field of field peas where someone had clipped the corner of the crop with a tractor or something, severing a lot of stems. These would never have been harvested, just left to rot so it would have been rude not to really.

First gleaning run of the season. I think that's a solid start to the weekend, no?

We don't even know how many sweet red cherries are in this picture, across four whole containers, but it's a lot.

More blackberrying today yields another 1.8kg. It’ll reduce to 1.6-1.7 once I clean out all the gritty bits and tiny worms. #Gleaning #UrbanForaging

Gleaned 1.7 kg of blackberries today. Turned some into a cobbler, made some jam and froze the rest. Feeling like a cunning peasant gloating over FREE FOOD #gleaning

Summer harvest I’m trying to fit in freezer, fam: red currants, black currants, acorn squash, pesto (thaw, add Parmesan), apple and pear pie filling. Good year!

It’s a small freezer but I’ll figure it out

It’s apple season! 🍎 Transition Chesterfield's Abundance project collects unwanted apples from gardens across their community.

Then volunteers juices, stores and donates them to make sure they are eaten and enjoyed.

Fresh, local food freely shared – their Apple Day is this Saturday.
Just one #transitiontown rescuing and celebrating the humble apple!

Read more about how they do it and their many and varied apple recipes: transitiontogether.org.uk/appl

Good morning #dublin, do you (or does someone you know) have a #fruit tree that needs picking? An elderly neighbor or relative whose apple, pear, hazel, walnut, late plum, etc. could use some attention? Friends and I will come pick it for free, give the owner 25%, keep 25%, and donate the remaining fruit to an organisation that provides food for people who need it. #gleaning #urbanHarvesting #PassItOn

Wild blackberry season has started with a vengeance. There are millions this year, good size ones, too, from all the rain. Plenty for us and the birds. Horrible to pick, of course. These ones were sown for us by the birds, years ago, and we just tend them and #harvest , freeze and eat throughout the year.

Is there any organized #fruit #gleaning or #foraging in #Dublin?
