In fact, spruce tips are a fantastic source of vitamin C and one of the main reasons why scurvy is historically all but unknown in indigenous populations in regions where spruce thrive (which is damn near everywhere). Furthermore, spruce tips have also been added to beer during brewing, and made into tinctures, bitters, etc. for thousands of years. There are very few conifers that are unwise to harvest from, and most of them have flat/fanned needle sprays, so they’re easy to avoid. 🤘🏼🤓

Spruce isn’t pine. So now I question whether those replying know the difference between a pine tree and a conifer. They’re not all the same.
