This is the Jewel Weed, also called a touch-me-not due to the seed pods which pop open upon the slightest touch. The stem of the plant can be rubbed on rashes, such as those from poison ivy, to soothe irritation. . . . .... . #yegrivervalley #rivervalley #yegparks #edmonton #yeg #edmontonattractions #exploreyeg #exploreedmonton #discoveralberta #travelalberta #edmontonparks #edmontonrivervalley #edmontonrivervalley #yeggers #780 #yegblog #yegnature #naturefacts #millcreek #yegfun #yegoutside #traveledmonton #yegdatenight #yegphotographer #yegproud #yegphoto #yegplants #nature #treaty6 #yegtravel #yegfun See more
Alfalfa is a small legume native to Asia and often grown for grazing animals. Just like the Canadian buffaloberry from a couple posts ago, alfalfa is rich in "saponins". In large amounts saponins can irritate the stomach, however in lower concentrations they aid with cholesterol breakdown. In farm animals a saponin rich diet has shown to decrease respiratory tract issues. . . . .... . #yegrivervalley #rivervalley #yegparks #edmonton #yeg #edmontonattractions #exploreyeg #exploreedmonton #discoveralberta #travelalberta #edmontonparks #edmontonrivervalley #edmontonrivervalley #yeggers #780 #yegblog #yegnature #naturefacts #millcreek #yegfun #yegoutside #traveledmonton #yegdatenight #yegphotographer #yegproud #yegphoto #yegplants #nature #treaty6 #yegtravel #yegfun See more

The Canada Buffaloberry is a delicacy for bears, deer, and in some places eaten by people today. The berries have a distinctive bitter taste due to molecules called saponins; however indigenous groups often mixed them in with other berries or used them in pemmican to mask the taste. The saponins foam up when mixed and the berries can be whisked into a dense foam to create "Indian Ice Cream". But be aware, too many berries will likely induce a stomach ache. . . . .... . . #yegrivervalley #rivervalley #yegparks #edmonton #yeg #edmontonattractions #exploreyeg #exploreedmonton #discoveralberta #travelalberta #edmontonparks #edmontonrivervalley #edmontonrivervalley #yeggers #780 #yegblog #yegnature #naturefacts #millcreek #yegfun #yegoutside #traveledmonton #yegdatenight #yegphotographer #yegproud #yegphoto #yegplants #nature #treaty6 #yegtravel #yegfun See more
