Peg and Awl Botanical Necklace – Wood Sorrel

Often times our most wonderful discoveries are merely the recognition of what is before us – and in this case under foot! Our botanical jewelry collection was inspired by our unearthing of the usefulness of invasive weeds and pays homage to its winged cultivator. WOOD SORREL (oxalis montana) origin: Cosmopolitan Species edible notes: Whole plant edible, lemony taste nutrition: Contains vitamins A and C in season: All year medicinal use: Thirst quencher, diuretic, alleviates scurvy Wood Sorrel is a lovely clover look-alike with petit yellow flowers can be found nearly everywhere. Since our ‘discovery’ of this magical little weed with it’s crisp lemony taste, we have allowed it also to invade our kitchen. We have used it as a garnish atop desserts and cookies, and have shown it off in a vase when over-plucked. It regularly shows up in our salads, and in the tummies of our chickens.
