Test Your Knowledge of Local Herbs (Herbal I.D. Match)

By Beth Record, Co-op Member and Local Herbalist


How well do you know our local herbs? Our yards, roadsides, and fields are abundant with wild food and medicine.


We caution you against harvesting herbs from roadsides, but a walk along a roadway is great for honing your plant identification skills. We live inside an abundant Green Community of Sentient Beings. To know who you live amongst is always a good thing. Let’s have some fun!


Test your knowledge of local herbs with the matching/i.d. tests below. The photos may have been too small for you to see in print, but take a look below where you can enlarge your screen to see more clearly.

Answers to photo matches that were printed in the late summer/fall 2021 newsletter are found in this article!








Thanks for playing!
