Foraging for a salad

It was a little treat to go foraging with Urban Harvest this weekend. We didn't expect to find many things due to the cold spell but was pleasantly surprised. The picture below is the final result of the salad.



It was very enjoyable to learn and taste all the different types of foliage - some tasted much nicer than others! I would love to learn more about foraging and hope to be able to participate a few more events like this in the near future. 

Here is what went in the salad:

Bittercress

Yarrow

Campanula

Buds on Linden tree

Red Valerian

Chives

Ground elder

Lesser celandine


Lemon balm

Garlic mustard

Goosegrass

Dandelion leaves

Hawthorn leaves

Primrose flowers

Violets

There were a couple more things that I missed taking a photo of but I got most of it.
