Imagine:
A warm sauté of dandelion greens with garlic and olive oil
A lemony purslane salad with tomatoes and feta
A batch of wild green pesto made from foraged leaves
Or even crispy nettle chips with sea salt and a squeeze of lemon
The possibilities are as wild as the plants themselves.
A Little Curiosity Goes a Long Way
The next time something green and unfamiliar pops up in your garden, pause before pulling. Get to know it. Look it up. Ask a gardener friend. You might just discover your new favorite ingredient — growing right at your feet.
Because sometimes, the best things in your garden aren’t the ones you planted on purpose — they’re the ones you learned to love on accident.
