Late Summer Plant Walks

with Lise Wolff, RH (AHG), M.Sc.

Late Summer

The light is changing. Days are getting shorter. Echos of autumn are in the air, which buzzes with the sound of the cicadas. Plants are still coming to fruition for us to learn and harvest. Some we have been watching since the very beginning, like goldenrod. Others just seemed to become easily identifiable a month or two ago. Yet here they all are, thriving in the morning cool and afternoon heat and humidity.

Fall is coming. Just when you thought the harvesting season would end, there is another group we must learn about. The roots. The upper parts of the plants are starting to die back and the roots are storing the plant's energy and medicine to grow the following spring. Ideally we wait till it is cold outside to harvest those roots. So hang on. More to come!

I loved these. It's almost like Lise can transmit her love for a plant to you. Goldenrod will never be the same. I gathered just enough to tincture and a few stems to put on our table.
