Over the winter, we’ll be alternating our walks between hilly, established communities and newer, flatter ones. Yesterday’s walk took us through hilly #MacEwanGlen, so today we ventured over to #WolfWillow in SE #Calgary

A hand holds small seeds. A mug is full of brown tea. A pile of dried seed hulls lay on a paper towel.
I’m processing some wolf willow seeds that I foraged in the fall, hopefully to make some beads. In the meantime I’ve made a tea from the powdery insides of the berry, and it’s so yummy! Full of antioxidants and polyphenols, no scurvy for me!
