Foraging for fiddleheads (AKA ostrich fern fronds) is one of my favourite Rites of Spring. Yum!

They're the first green food available locally. Steam them and add some vinegar and butter, or just grill 'em. These ones are still raw.

Just don't eat the wrong type of fern, or too many, or eat them when they're too old, or too often, or they'll be toxic....

You can make dandelions into a nice salad, too! (Also a good wine kinda like mead)

Yeah, probably. But they taste amazing, and they're free, and they're only available for a couple of weeks each year.
