Meet the Plants

A chronicle of my encounters with the flora and fauna of my neighborwood.

I live in an open woodland area, pretty close to the outskirts of a town, and next door to a dairy farm.

As a student herbalist, it’s good to know what allies are around and which neighbors can help with what!

  • Red Trillium made its appearance in the woods early on.
  • Horsetail (Equisetum arvense)
  • Goldenrod
  • Blue Cohosh
  • Fuzzy interrupted ferns (Osmunda claytoniana)
  • Yellow Trout Lily (Erythronium americanum)
