Spring foraging: how to eat young blackberry leaves

5/4/2013

Blackberry
Rubus fruticosus

Dutch: Gewone braam, Braambes
French: Mûres
German: Brombeere

Foraging in a family member's garden. Baby blackberry leaves are one of the first wild greens that can be found in spring. When last year's leaves are tough and thorny, the new growing leaves are soft and tender, with a flavour that may remind you a bit of coconut. Definitely worth a try!

Thanks so much for this! I'm always on the lookout for new edibles to forage, and there's so many blackberries in my area.

You're so welcome, Krista! Blackberry really has so much more to offer than her juicy berries :)
