**Wildcrafting for a Living **

The realistic fiction novel, Where the Lilies Bloom, by Vera and Bill Cleaver shows how the Luther’s are very serious about wildcrafting and prove how important it is. Likewise, The Luther’s thought by selling hydrangea (H. Macrophylla) would help them earn some money. Hydrangea is a beautiful flower found in East Asia, North America, and South America. People harvest their roots to eat. Also, harvesters make them into powder so they can cook with it. There are about twenty five species of this particular flower. It comes in shades of pink, red, blue, and white. These bushes sprout near river banks because the soil is moist and healthy. The flowers bloom in the months of June and July. When they fully bloom, they can grow to only 5-6 inches. For example, lamb’s quarters (Chenopodium Berlandieri) is another plant the Luther’s harvested. This plant is found in the United States. They usually grow in soil that has been slightly disturbed or ruined. This plant can be eaten by people, animals, and insects. People grind the plant’s seeds to make flour and powder for cooking. This plant tastes a lot like spinach and beets, but has a milder flavor. Other names for this plant include white goose’s foot and pigweed. Lamb’s quarters can grow in old fields, vacant lots, and abandoned farmland. Thus, the Luther’s found wildcrafting to be a life changing job for the family. wholeblossoms.com veggiegardeningtips.com
