Identifying over 65 Plants and Mushrooms on the Pinckney Trail MrFreeGman: 14: 25 Hog peanuts got their nickname because hogs are rather fond of them. The claim that settlers were intentionally insulting Native culture with the name is unsubstantiated. This myth was started by Samual Theyer, who is a modern day author on foraging - he is not a historian, and he does not back his claims with any evidence. With that said, there's no need to randomly throw dirt at people's heritage in a video about botany, especially when you're speaking of a heritage that is not your own and merely repeating false claims made by others. Please consider being more responsible with the historical information you broadcast to your wide audience; the last thing this world needs right now is more division and racial/cultural tension. Otherwise really enjoyed the video, thanks.

Cool you pointed out ground nut too. I didn-t know that occurred that far north. I-m down in Asheville N. C. and see that all over here. Fun fact addition: ground nut is one of the few plants in the world that flowers both above and below ground. Yes, underground flowers that are self fertile! A cool strategy to increase the odds of distribution and reproduction =]

At last! A hiking video that teaches something! There is never a word about anthropology, biology, history, geology, or ecosystems in general! I don't know why. Thank you so much! Watch out for the PI. Rattlesnakes and coppers waiting for birds under the berry bushes in morning and evening. I would never hike in short shorts! Especially in NC! PI!

Love these identification videos, what happened to the mushroom video mentioned in the chat? Really amazing Andrew learned this as a hobby I had thought he had a degree in botany. When I was a kid I used to use the dried spindle of goldenrod as arrows for my bow and arrow when we went out in the country. Worked great!

Funny that you pointed out the fruit loopy smell of spice Bush. When I was an outdoor guide, if I ever pointed that out I would tell people that-s what they used to flavor fruit loops. People would always be bewildered and then quickly realize that I-m full of shit. Haha

That was great! Queen Anne-s lace was my favorite new plant I learned this summer. It-s everywhere! I still haven-t dug one up to see the carrot though. There-s a lot of -fairy doors- and little houses around Ann Arbor, it-s a thing

Thanks to Andrew, I have been able to identify many plants. Watching these allowed me to enjoy my first Sorrells at Minister Creek. By the way, that trip that you guys took there, totally inspired my own trip there back in May 2020.

Beautiful work. I truly enjoyed your evolution high lighting plants as your primary focus on your most recent journey. Loved the descriptions and names. I feel more engaged with plants because of your work. Much love and light.

This was great. Would love for you to come to the Sonoran Desert here in AZ and do something similar. Would love to learn more about our plants here. I-m sure I could look it up but you make it all more interesting lol

Domesticated swine roamed freely in early America. I'm sure they dug these up ate them by the truckload. No offense but I don't really buy into the insulting Native Americans story. It sounds very made up to me.
