Foraging for Preserves

Dandelion Jelly, Lilac and White Wine Jelly, Rosehip Jelly, wild mint jelly...

Sometimes I wonder how people come up with some of these recipes, but I'm glad they did, because I love being able to forage edible plants for jams and jellies. I've made a wild rose petal jelly in the past, with rose petals we collected in the rain when we were at our cabin. We also got some rose hips and made them into Rose Hip and Green Tea jelly. (Yes, when we go to the lake to relax, we pick wild berries, rose petals and rose hips!)

The girls said they would pick the dandelions for me, so I'll see what concoction I can come up with using dandelion tea!
