Rosehips in the rain 🌧 These rosehips are from our native Swamp or Clustered Rose plants. 🌧 It's best to harvest rosehips after the first frost. 🌧 Rosehips and their seeds can be cold pressed to make an oil world-renowned for its anti-aging abilities (I use rosehip oil several times a week). Rosehips are also one of nature's richest sources of Vitamin C and hence have been used forever to combat coughs, colds, flus, respiratory conditions, boosting white blood cell count, and keeps the immune system in overall good health. Making a tea can also help with digestive health, weight loss, and arthritis pains. Honestly, there's too many benefits for me to list here. ° ° ° #rosehips #rosehip #autumnfruits #autumnforaging #fallforaging #wildmedicinalplants #wildmedicine #wildedibleplants #edibleplants #wildcrafting #forageandharvest #harvestandforage #pnwphotography #pnwbeauty #pnwplants #pnwnativespecies #swamprose #november #darknaturephotos #darknatureaesthetics #darkphotography #darknaturephotography #darknature #ethereal_nature #raindrops #washingtonnativeplants #moodynature_elite #moodygrams #beautifulplaces #spoiledonthecoastlines

Miss @elektra.von.wolf & Lobaria pulmonaria! “Uses for lungwort include dyes, teas, and wild animal forage. Because it resembles lung tissue, humans have used lungwort for lung ailments, such as tuberculosis and asthma. Large animals such as deer and moose, as well as small creatures like microscopic insects, use this lichen for food. Other critters like chipmunks and birds use lungwort, and other lichens, for nesting material.” Link to this article on my story now. Lots of info! #pnwnativeplants #pnwnativespecies #pnw #pnwwonderland #pnwdiscovered #outdoors #plants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantpeople #plantsplantsplants #lichen #fungi #lichenology #plantstagram
Since y'all dug the mountain lion last week, here are more stills from our wildlife camera capturing a local carnivore you've probably seen and definitely heard if you live in Jefferson County: coyote. The cameras were installed and monitored over the summer by an enthusiastic group of volunteers from our community at our Snow Creek Forest Preserve, Valley View Forest, Chai-yahk-wh Preserve, the Quimper Wildlife Corridor, and Duckabush Riparian Forest Preserve. To see more exclusive photos from our wildlife cameras 🖼 and read more about this project, click the link in our bio.

The Creation Berry is well on its way! For those of you who have no clue what I am talking about—these are Service Berry blossoms.
