Title: Fur trade pemmican
Post by: William on August 19, 2008, 10:45:05 am

Historical pemmican from the Canadian fur trade in the 18th and 19th centuries.

So they didn't eat it alone. Wonder what a wild onion looks like?

A wild onion looks like green grass with a small onion bulb for a root. I pulled some of it up when I was clearing part of my yard for a garden this Spring/Summer. The smell gives it away.

I'm not going to eat it. Need my iodine.
Now wild garlic is different, haven't seen any nearby though.
