Amish moved into my area about 15 years ago. They keep it picked clean, so I had to put in my own bed. Not the same, but still have asparagus. I'm so happy my grandmother showed me what wild asparagus and poke looked like. And then how to cook and freeze it. We even had blackberries growing beside the railroad tracks that ran by our house. You could get to them on both sides without working through weeds. Then one day the railroad sent a truck through and sprayed them. No more blackberries. My grandma was fuming.
I live in Michigan and have lots of Amish around here. Blackberries too. I've been meaning to get a foraging book. We do quite a bit but there is always more to learn. We have lots of wildlife of course. Raised on it. Love May for the morels! And fall for the black walnuts. I have asparagus in my garden too. I remember when my grand parents built a small deck off their kitchen. It was on a hill and it's placement made it hard for my grandparents to get to. They would hand me gpas jack knife and I would crawl around under that deck cutting those delicious spears of green. Much better taste and much better experience than a grocery store!
Amen. God how I miss the good things God already had placed here for us to eat and enjoy.
