I'd like to try preparing and eating tules, but once again i'm afraid of the mercury content (and other toxic gunk) of the water. Do they somehow filter the water they soak up, or will it contain the same chemicals as the surrounding water?

Found this.....It where the phrase "out in the tules" come from

To answer your question, I have no idea, I woulder if you local Universety or DNR could tell you?
Marshes and wet lands do 'filter", water, as well as hold it.

It might be this:

That's what I deal with in the flatlands.
Is this in a historical gold mining watershed?
Take a sample to your local extension office or DEP office and see if they will test it for you.
I would imagine that arrowhead root and cat-tails might be susceptible to pollution as well.....Like I said interesting question.

Very interesting question, I look forward to finding out the answer.
"Freedom had been hunted round the globe; reason was considered as rebellion; and the slavery of fear had made men afraid to think. But such is the irresistible nature of truth, that all it asks, and all it wants, is the liberty of appearing."
Thomas Paine
Minimalist Camping: Enjoy nature, don't be tortured by it. Take as little as you need to be safe and comfortable.
I was taught by more than one herbalist that cat tails, while they are a wilderness grocery store will poison the He// out of you with heavy metals. The clean the enviornment. Good for the Urph, bad for the body. Hope that if you get lost your near a a CLEAN swamp...
