What Are Some Common Edible Grasses, Weeds and Flowers?
Many wild plants, grasses and flowers that are considered weeds could be used for food or medicinal purposes. Many of these plants may have been introduced by earlier settlers, but then forgotten over time and eventually condemned from the garden as weeds. Among the wild plants are edible grains, root vegetables, leafy greens and medicinal herbs that are free to anyone willing to learn their identification and uses.
