Thanks to everyone for supporting me on the perennial edible adventure I’ve been on since my little story was published 5 years ago today!
It’s not too late to be included in my gallery of #ATWselfies either!
Please send me your picture and you’ll be added! You will be showing support of a very good cause: the conservation of the amazing diversity of food plants and their related traditions Around the World. See the album of #ATW Selfies below and also on FB here: https://www.facebook.com/stephen.barstow.7/media_set?set=a.10157331181205860 and previously on this blog at http://www.edimentals.com/blog/?p=466
And it’s always nice when your peers say nice things about your creation….here Joe Hollis of Mountain Gardens :) (I was sitting there though!)
191119: The first new #ATWselfie is from my new friemd Isaac John (Coblentz) from NE Ohio (with a bit of Finland in the mix!) who sent this picture and wrote these nice words: “This is one of my favorite books. I keep it in my backpack and never tire of re-reading. Your book has also expanded my diet and improved my health. It is a real treasure. It was so nice to meet you and spend time with you and Joe Hollis at Mountain Gardens. Thank you for the years of time you put into this wonderful book!”
201119: Thanks to Joshua Christian for this inventive #ATWselfie! He writes: “Making a sandwich with some of the ingredients from the book (and some that aren’t). Clockwise from left: small (salad size) Taunton dean kale leaves, profusion sorrel, patience sorrel/dock, large (cooking size) Taunton dean kale, garden sorrel, atriplex canescens, dittander, sweet cicely, rosemary partially hidden by dandelions, chicory. Inspirational and well thumbed book.”
211119: Check out Jake Rayson, forest gardener from West Wales :)
231119: From my friend Eliane Vivi Frieda Bonde on the beautiful island of Bornholm!
231119: Looking particularly cool with my book, Mr. Bram Cools…who writes: “Bad selfie with backlight, with a great book by Stephen Barstow on Edimentals. Anyone who likes gardening and want more than radishes should buy this book!” :)
Many thanks for this Lillian Berthung! I remembe how we met on a flight from North Norway to Trondheim. You sat next to me, I was reading one of Sam Thayer’s books (whom I finally met this year) which you asked me about :)
This picture taken in Elin Rydningen’s greenhouse, https://www.facebook.com/alchemilladrivhuset , should of course also be in my #ATWselfie album!

Isaac John Koblentz (see his #ATWselfie) was one of 3 guys who travelled all the way from northern Ohio for the joint walk and talk I did with Joe Hollis at Mountain Gardens (North Carolina) in fall 2019! Here they tell a little bit about each other! Thanks so much for coming!
