There are three common clover species here in southeastern Ontario. They are white clover (T. repens), red clover (T. pratense), and aslike clover (T. hybridum). If you live in North America, you've probably encountered all of them at some point.

Here in southeastern Ontario, plants are beginning to emerge after a long and cold winter. It's wonderful to see the landscape transform with spring growth. In this post, I discuss some common spring plants and their uses.

Red clover is often dismissed as a “weed” but this small plant has been used traditionally for years for its edible and medicinal qualities. It is a great plant to introduce to beginner foragers as it grows abundantly throughout the world and many people can readily identify it.
