In case you haven't heard, many weeds are great for your mental and physical health.
I've seen advertisements for dandelion root tea, mullein leaf, and horsetail recently. Many people claim that these few weeds are good for your liver, kidney, lung, and overall health. Maybe we should change our response to weeds, huh?

Last summer, I hiked parts of Colorado with my gluten-sensitive assistant. Lol made her keep a lookout for cattail. Then before our hiking adventures were over, I made her a yummy gluten-free pie. Nature is literally the gift that keeps on giving. Let me know if I should share my cattail pie recipe.

Just a simple search in these forums can even tell you what your weeds are good for.

Really wish my grandmother had fed us those dandelion greens instead of poisoning the soil.

Happy spring time! Enjoy your garden Grin

Love dandelion greens and other medicinal weeds. Thumbs up

Dandelion doesn't seem to grow wild here so I grow it! Hilarious!

This French Culinary Dandelion grows large greens. The roots are definitely good for cleansing the liver. I like the toasted roots as a tea. Smiling
