Foraging Around Franklin, Tennessee!

While the kids have been in day camp this week, I have had the opportunity to explore my area to look for new foraging spots.  It is amazing that I have lived here nearly ten years but have never really looked at my surroundings.  You can find so many new things when you really look around you.  I can't wait until everything is in season and ready to be picked!

Wild Grapes at Publix!

There are four different spots in Franklin that you can pick wild blackberries!
