Thanks for the warning about the effects of wild parsnip. I have it here and there in my pastures. The horses won’t eat it.

I saved some of my garden parsnip seed for the first time this year. I hope these things didn’t cross.

Strange that you never hear about the Wild Parsnip. I’ve gotten poison ivy as well, and that sure is no picnic. At least with the parsnip, you have to break it and get the fluid on you so it’s somewhat manageable but honestly, it looked like I had some flesh eating disease when I got into it. And it lasted about 6 months on me.
