Went foraging in the front yard this morning. Tons of Dandelion flowers!!! Got 7 trays of dandelion leaf and flower, and 2 trays of mustard weed. Brought out the weedwacker after that, and discovered we have prickly lettuce growing after all! I didn't see those tiny plants among the others till after I wacked down the grass that's decided to grow there this year! We also have a few very tiny broadleaf plantain plants growing, so I grabbed a few of their baby leaves to tell them we want them, and a few of the prickly lettuce leaves to give the same message.

It appears we have more horsetail growing, as well as what might be very young Red Chokecherry bushes growing in two places! My daughter is trying to grow cuttings, and of the 4 she'd taken from a mature bush, only two appear to be alive and that's AFTER using rooting powder! So she'll be happy to hear the news! We also have a burdock plant growing inside our little courtyard, and some catnip growing there as well.

Not a bad spread of greens.

Here is our herb dryer, brought out for the season just in time for a storm to roll in, so I have it's tarp umbrella set up and drew it over after taking this photo. With so many trays of dandelion, one tray couldn't fit the dryer. It is now in the shelter due to the impending storm clouds I can see from my window.
