Edible weeds are packed with delicious nutrition! If you enjoy mustard greens, spinach, chard, kale, arugula, or more exotic greens, you’re in for a free treat, growing only a few feet from your door. These eleven common, flavor-filled weeds thrive in city yards. Found world-wide, they offer a treasure trove of benefits, including vital vitamins and potent minerals missing from purchased greens which have been harvested, transported and stored. Weeds in an untreated yard accommodate to weather, flourish free from toxic chemicals, and require no planting, weeding, or tending. Weed blossoms and seeds provide food for butterflies, bees, and beneficial insects. "Edible Weeds in a City Yard" is the author’s personal compilation from years of experience; an informal, practical, visually delightful handbook filled with colorful photos, advice on identifying, harvesting, and preparation guidelines. Traditional healing benefits are listed. Recipes for entrees, salads, smoothies, and kid-friendly snacks are included, along with resources for further information.
