Each food item has it's season
and we learn that it is always best to
eat these foods "in their season."
The most logical reason is that
foods are at their taste-perfect best
in their own time. How simple can it
be? Even with our advanced trans-
portation systems, why should we
think that we have to "fast-food" any
and all of these goodies, to eat any
of them all of the time? Whatever
happened to the saying "and each
fruit to it's season? With such a vast
variety of items to select from we
shouldn't get stuck on one continu-
ous plant family if we want to keep
our systems in balance -- and that
is what nurturing ourselves is all
about.
Pokeweed, phytolacca ameri-
cana (phytolaccaceae), is an excel-
lent spring tonic and green. It is one
of those herbal plants we must be
very careful with, Some times of the
year it is too toxic for our systems to
handle. Poke was highly used by
American Indians and early 19th
Century herbalists. Russian herbal-
ists actually transplanted this botani-
cal to areas around the Black Sea,
the Caucasus and Crimea areas, to
have the medicinal properties read-
ily at hand. In the spring the early
poke shoots are gathered, washed
and boiled in two changes of water
and eaten as a green vegetable of
made into a tea for a spring tonic.
Pokeweed has served a purpose in
the history of medicine as an alter-
native, emetic and cathartic. Many
people still use poke in weak doses
as a tonic or in combination with
other herbs to treat arthritis, rheu-
matism and connective problems
with the throat and ear canals. Poke
root has very powerful detoxifying
effects and should be used with
caution and in combination with
other herbs to buffer its affect on the
kidneys, lungs and spleen.
Black Eider Bark, sambucus ca-
nadensis, ebulus, nigra, or
racemoss (caprifoliaceae), is not
only a great alternative but a won-
derful plant to know and recognize.
Elder, in any form --- berries, buds,
inner bark, leaves, flowers, roots
and young shoots -- is noted for its
medicinal and tasty qualities. Made
into jams, jellies, syrups or tasty
wines, elder serves as a cathartic,
diaphoretic, diuretic, purgative and
gentle stimulant. Used both inter-
nally and externally, elder could be
