Hey Jeremy, I see what you're saying about the kinnikinnick photo. I didn't think to ensure that the berries were in the photo based on "clear image of the wild species" - I suppose it's because I would need the leaves to identify the species, I wouldn't be able to identify it based on the berries.

I harvested a bunch of kinnikinnick to restock and while it was drying I picked off the berries - collecting the berries for this BB was, admittedly, an after thought. I have a different photo of kinnikinnick from that day that I harvested kinnikinnick where there's a berry in the bottom left of the photo. This has caused me to rethink how I'm documenting this BB so I'll try another approach in the future!

I attended Helen's Garden Master Course in January 2022 and give the lectures 10/10 acorns! Fortunately for you, you can also see the Garden Master recordings but unfortunately you'll miss out on the fruit Helen grew and shared. It was the tastiest fruit I've ever had!
This one is mostly for myself because I highly recommend using this BB tracking spreadsheet and I need a faster way to locate it when I want to share it with potential SKIPpers.

*Note that I added a revised kinnikinnick photo to the above BB submission. Please review, thanks!!

I went camping and found so many new plants to collect seeds from! My favorite find was the black hawthorn tree! Hopefully this approach to documentation works better.

The species I found, in picture-order, are:
Black hawthorn
Blue grama
Currants
Pinyon pine
Spider flower
Winterfat

To complete this BB, the minimum requirements are:
      o Save seeds from 6 species of wild plants

      o Save seeds from 6 species of wild plants
      o At least one half teaspoon of each

I'm resubmitting this BB since my kinnikinnick photo caused it to be an edge case. I recently went hiking and found a new handful of kinnikinnick AND made sure to capture seeds still on the plant in the background.

I foraged:
1-acorns
2-houndstongue
3-kinnikinnick/uvi ursi
4-plum
5-rose hips
6-three leaf sumac
