Ah, you guys - what comes close to the joy of discovering a weed that has a host of beneficial properties, or even better, tastes great?! I recently discovered ground ivy as a salad herb, or dried as an infusion. It’s delicious. Turns out, it helps prevent cancer as well as a host of other benefits.

You encountered any other similar delights?

It was great to discover that the seeds of Himalayan Balsam (Impatiens glandulifera) are edible. It grows alongside a river I cross on my way to work so I can get a morning snack and do a (tiny) bit towards controlling this invasive weed.
