Burdock

Good morning! Would you look at all this lovely burdock basking in the sun!
Last summer there were just a few plants and I really didn't bother much with them. I did think about harvesting those celery-like leaf stems, but there was too much chaos for me to even consider canning, so I left it be.
Now there is a plentiful crop! I will have enough to add to whatever meals I can this summer and have some to add to meals regularly.
Sometimes I wonder about all the people who don't realize how many wild plants are edible. How do they not know that their diet is lacking? How do they not know how much healthier they could be?
