Fern fiddleheads at Valley Falls Park in Vernon, Connecticut
It’s getting late in the season to forage for fiddleheads in the wild, but you may still be able to find a few of these furled fronds. Several species of fern grow these edible shoots, which will unfurl into full fronds as they grow. But harvested at the early stage shown in this photo, they can be prepared and served just like asparagus.
