Just had some wood sorrel, violets and dandelion leaves on my avocado English muffins (with other spices). Sat and ate in the dirt.. tasted even better! 🌱☘️🥑
Put chickweed in a salve and it is so powerful the Federal government will come after ya. Amish Sam in Bath County wiol attest to that. Five year sentence. Interesting case. Chickweed rocks.
Useful knowledge for a food forest.
Love chickweed! Very good to eat and probably grows right next to your deck.
Love this teaching, it has become lost knowledge so thank you for sharing it
Chickweed is delicious in those early spring salads! My favorite! Along with dandelion leaves.
Wow!!!! Much too learn and too grow!!!!
Don't Read To Me😂😮unsub
That’s so cool! My chickens actually seek out and LOVE eating chickweed! I had no idea it was called chickweed but its name makes perfect sense!
Do any of these plants have calcium exalates?
That's a really good video idea, don't eat these eatables to avoid kidney stones.
I had some wood sorrel this afternoon while doing so yard work (yard snack). My favorite is the little seed pods. I picked some plantain to dry for an oil infusion. I put chickweed in my husband daily tea blend with stinging nettles. I gather chickweed in the spring and fall. They are all wonderful plants to know and incorporate in your diet. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Plantain Also grows in Hawaii,,
👍
Thank you
Dandelion is the best !
And one thing : when bea bite you it mark you as target for all beas so it clever to cover that red dot where bea bite you ! It the same for all insects who bite – when first bite you it's mean " This is enemie, bite him "
Greetings from Montenegro ! ❤
I have these things in my yard, but I am not comfortable using them without someone experienced coming here giving me the okay. I really am missing out. I just don't want to poison us by making a mistake.
Oh my word! I live on a farm and all these are in the yard. I'm gonna try that one on the poison Ivy that eats me up alive.
Wood sorrel-sour grass
Plaintain- pig ears
Chickweed-same. Salad and also great as a liver cleanse and diet aid..😊 used to pick all of these as a kid to feed my rabbits!
You have got to be kidding me! The longer I live, the longer I watch YouTube. The more I keep learning about plants that are edible and medicinal.
Chick weed is destroying my yard!! North Dakota. I've cried because I can't get rid of it!!!
Awesome , thanks 😊
