Research Plan 2016 – Trees for Peace

The “Linden Leaf Lettuce Research Project” strives to build more knowledge around leaf production, harvest, storage and cooking linden leaves. We collect production data – how much do we get from each tree? taste preferences – which is the most delicious species/cultivar?

We have planted 25 small trees in Soest, the Netherlands during 2015, to use as a reference point for the quantitative research.

We are looking for more people to help build more knowledge about this.Do you have some linden trees where you harvest leaves? How does it work for you? Can you share your favourite recipes?
