An easy way to increase nutrition is by adding a variety of veggie powders to rice cooking water. Whether foraged or purchased, I've yet to find one that doesn't work well. For making beverages I find milk or coconut milk hold them in suspension much better than water does and a pinch of sugar is great for the bitter ones. No need for capsules unless you need to get them into others. Thanks for the continuous inspiration.
Thank you for watching. When you think of any veggie (or wild plant) powder - they cannot totally dissolve into a beverage unless (I believe) something has been done to that powder to make it totally dissolve. In reality you have tiny green particles - I can't see how they can totally dissolve so there is no settling. Stir before drinking!!

I have three wilds in my garden allowed to grow on the borders, chickory, dandelion and dock, both kinds. After years of being fertilzed with my goat manure and tended along with my regular vegetables, they are 'tamed'. First early greens and they are entirely changed from the wild brethern. I also have stinging nettle i allow to grow in seveal areas on my property, way too invasive for any garden inclusion. Helps to have some property that is not typical suburban plots. Weeds are only weeds because they grow way too easily. No way to control them with patents, YET.
Today at the grocery store I was shocked to find them selling a huge bunch of dandelion leaves for 1.99 / lb. I had not seen this before. So now as I harvest the dandelions on my property I can feel even more self sufficient that I do not have to purchase them and not know what toxins were sprayed on them before they reached the store.
@@EdibleWildFood-1 That figures because everyone wants everything they purchase to be in perfect shape. When I purchase organic produce and find a bud in it, I am thrilled because it means that it wasn't sprayed with the most toxic pesticide. I do know that organic also receives pesticides, but not the modern toxic, kill everything ones.
@@jojow8416 I live near a huge farming area known as the Holland Marsh and I know a couple of farmers there. One year, a crate of romaine lettuce was sent to a local grocery store. They sent it back because a couple of them had a LITTLE amount of browning. They said they had to be perfect!!! Since when is nature is perfect? The farm had to scramble to find a new buyer. So sad.
@@EdibleWildFood-1 Most people today obsessed with perfection. Here in the U.S. I purchase from a company called MissFits Market. They buy imperfect produce from small farms around the country and sell it to at a reduced cost. In the past that produce became waste.

We are in serious trouble if our wild greens become patented. Like you, I also have areas in my garden in which I allow many wild greens to thrive!
I have Alaskan chamomile in my garden 😃
I love it when I get volunteers
@@ryangooseling A great way to phrase it - volunteers!!
My mom, during the depression, ate dandelion in salads and like collard greens or spinach.
Smart woman!!!!

I left a burdock go to maturity for the root 3 ft. long unfortunately it seeded the veg garden with thousands of seedlings.

I haven't verified it, but I was told that dandelion farms do a lot of pesticide spraying. Would not surprise me!!
