Join Emma Radeka of the Metta Earth Institute for a deep dive into the wonderful world of the staghorn sumac (Rhus typhina). All you need to make some delicious, tangy sumac-ade is a staghorn sumac plant, a knife, a pot/pitcher, and some water!

  • I had one pop up on my garden boarder, and it being such a beautiful plant, I didn't have the heart to yank it out. Thank you for the info.
  • Thank you for this video. I was on a bike path in Burlington Vermont, foraging for raspberries, when I noticed this tree and I wondered what it was. It was then, I described what I thought I was seeing to YouTube search engine, and your video came up.
  • @stoodydoo
    Very beautiful. Up until recent years, I was told this was poisonous. We have it growing in our backyard.
  • Nice video, I have a field of sumac up here in Nova Scotia..I use the stuff alot .sumac wine is the best homemade drink along with the non alcoholic juice drink. I heat the clusters in hot water probably reducing health benefits but good flavor and rich red color.
  • I thank you for the info., and wish that I knew about this plant years ago when I got some starts to grow one. All I knew was it is a cool looking plant/tree. The first year of growth, a neighbor ask if it was a maryjane plant. I told him that I didn't know what it is. But that it wasn't maryjane (pot) for sure. Well couple weeks later the cops show up, and say they are looking for someone running from an accident. I watched from inside my house as they seem more interested in the Sumac than anything.
  • Finally someone is not trying to kill this plant!... will it grow in the desert?
  • I picked some on a city plot of land in Boston 🔥 great video.

    I just finished reading Braiding Sweet grass and I immediately recognised the honourable harvest in your action!! I love that book so much and it's really nice to see another example of someone following the guidances, as I'm trying to learn to do it too.
  • New sub, so excited to know ur channel exists 😊💙
  • @brianshull2000
    I offer extra water if dry out, some of my compost from garden and I say thank you to the plant & all other plants i take from. Great educational video. Thank you.
  • @HOPEbus
    Love this 💗 Thank u for sharing
  • @bampidraws
    How well do these grow in pots? And will the running roots escape pots through drainage pot holes?
  • thank-you so much for sharing your plant offering ritual......we all need to adopt this awareness. is it ok to transplant the sumac's shoots?
  • @user-gt7lk5ur9b
    I need a girl like this...for real! I'm an Animist Folk Heathen, but I slack on some things that I shouldn't. I just foraged some Sumac, and only considered the Copperheads that might ruin my week.
  • Beautiful presentation and presenter. Will try to plant this in my sunny garden, the concept of asking permission touched my heart, will try that connection with plants. hanks
  • how dark red will it be when its ripe? i find a lot of the ones with a little bit of green on the fruit taste bitter and idk if theyre fully ripe. however there is plenty of "dead" looking sumach branches where the fruit looks old and black and grey. another thing that concerns me though is a lot of other plants in the area also have similar "dead" looking limbs or they have a white hairy looking mold? growing underneath where leaves start to grow out of plants. is the area just sick?
