Could you make a meal from the weeds in your yard?

I have some dandelions, purslain and clover. A nice salad.

    Like I told the feds, it's not weed, its an exotic bush.



    Actually, there are no weeds in my yard.  Strict water restrictions and high heat took care of them.

    The weeds here like the heat and dry weather. Especially crab grass.

    No way would I eat anything that came out of my backyard, I have two dogs and they use that as their own personal potty. This post was edited by Echooos at August 25, 2021 8:03 AM MDT

    Yeah I could make a salad with a dandylion wine dressing - a side dish of wild carrots -  biscuts and dandylion wine to wash the meal down. It would take me hours to make one biscuit because I would have to dig up skunk cabbage roots and get the flour out of them.. Cheers! This post was edited by Nanoose at August 25, 2021 8:03 AM MDT

    Digging up those wild carrots is also quite a chore.

    i have the starter to a pretty good salad. lots of dandelions and dandelions leaves, and a bunch of strawberries that grow in the backyard every year

    i also have a garden i could pick from with tomatoes, mints, sweet potatoes, green beans, and hot peppers.
