  1. The first weed is called calalloo in Jamaica. It more like spinach, delicious with cod fish or sautéed with peppers and onions❤️

  2. We had purslane growing like a carpet in our garden. I was pulling it out by the bushel loads and tossing it out. The next year I found out it’s edible and being bought up by the restaurants. 😢

  3. Lovely content but I would appreciate in these plant information type programs the location being discussed would be clearly stated throughout☘️

  4. Hi I'm from Trinidad and just to let you know the first plant you pulled out we call it spinach in my country. And we cultivate it grow it and sell it as a spinach vegetable. So what y different countries know as wild is not. I am so glad to see your channel. It's educational. Thanks.

  5. Thank you for all this information! I have religiously de-weeded all these plants from my garden, ignorant of all these benefits. Dear weeds please forgive me…

  6. It's crazy to think that while nature puts these healthy herbs under our noses we try to pluck them out or kill with weed killers and then go to the supermarket and buy GMO foods that our body does not acknoledge or digest properly, hence making us sick and take medicine, when in fact the healthy and medicinal herb was under our noses all along

  7. Um-m. Seeing your kitty walking amongst the clover reminds me of the old warning about yellow snow.

  8. Thank you for a very well illistrated showing of edible weeds! I had Lambs quarter and purslane come up voluteer in my tomato tubs from last year, but not knowing how good they were for me, I didn't keep them watered in our drought. I hope they come back out in the fall.
