PSA: Yew is toxic

Since Yule is coming up it’s time for a reminder not to burn yew (the smoke will be very, very bad for you) or use any other parts of it. The berries are edible, but the seeds are not and the pollen male yew plants release can cause a variety of symptoms and trigger asthma. So be warned, you guys. 😊
