Prepper Ping !

Edible weeds, and foraging in the park , and in your own backyard.
Weeds are both a spring tonic and a supplement to your diet (as well as medicinally beneficial).
Guerilla Foraging ' au naturale '
Weeds are 'GMO free' !!

But not pesticide free so be wary.

Roadsides and parks are both areas that get sprayed a lot.

LOL. We let all the dandelions grow in our yard, because they are one of the first weeds that spring up, and they are a decent source of vitamin c. I also have a recipe on file to make dandelion wine. It’s a hard time’s file-ie prepper to use today’s buzz word.

It was a common and ordinary way of life for country folk back when I grew up. Hubby has that book Stalking the wild asparagus, and several others regarding wild edibles.

When we were in our twenties, he foraged every weekend and brought in wild stuff to sample-not from necessity, but as a hobby. Oldest daughter went with him on these forage trips, and had great fun.
