Good article Yolanda. For those of us with the possibiliies of harvesting edible "weeds" that grow wild and for some in sustainable abundance, I encourage you cultivate such and, as in the case with Yolanda, my sustainable comfrey crop allowed her to get cuttings to start her own crop and I am able to gift comfrey leaves to her if she so requires until her plants can be sustainably harvested. A win-win situation.
Thank you for these precious blessings from mother earth. Plantain grows like a weed here, and it grows near poison oak, and is an antidote. How smart is the Mother. . . . We also have purselane that grows wild without any care. The season is short. I love that you are growing them intentionally. Comfrey too. You should see it grow like crazy amongst the other plants. I love this issue of your substack. Thank you for the beautiful gift of the .pdf file.
you are welcome! Glad it touched you Marin. i still sort of envy the people who have the dirt and don't need to go through the dance of a thousand pots...

Your sustainable comfrey crop is one of my prize warriors Bryan, and she is very talll but a bit thin and bald now due to my roaming fingers.
Weeds in pots + megadoses of crooning and love = your own apothecary!
“Weed, weed, weed”, she cried, all the way home!
heeheehee.
except she was not crying - but rather squealing with joy!!!
