[quote:Lily o' the Valley:MV80NzU2NDc3Xzg2NzAwMzM5X0U0NDhCMDNE] Wild lettuce is coming onalong with chickweed and dandelions for salad I like young Russian thistle, cut while in the rosette stage before the stem shoots up. Trim the stickers off the leaf edges and boil up like spinach. It has a mild flavor which I like much better than spinach. This is a much under rated wild food. This year I want to try peeling the stems and cooking like asparagus, and also the roots. Burdock roots are very popular in Japan, where they cultivate it. I've not tried it, as we have so little here that I just let it be. My daughter is showing a lot of interest now in learning about the wild plants, which makes me very glad. I've showed my grandsons a few plants and my younger grandson really impressed a friend when he fixed the friend's nettle stings with dock like his grandma showed him. It kind of impressed me that he remembered it and put it to use! [/quote]

It’s nice that spring is here. Wild edible plants are popping up everywhere.
It’s like walking around in a giant salad.
Just have to wash off the raccoon pee.
