On Saturday morning I walked about for an hour or so and harvested some food in Lansing. It is always amazing to me that all of this food and these beautiful plants are not respected more... I harvested Garlic Mustard, Burdock Stems, Chives, Yarrow, Wintercress, and Lemon Balm.

I have been cultivating Wild Burdock for a few years now and working on developing some new food products with it. Currently I have a nice pizza topping made from Burdock stems of young plants, cut into small pieces and sautéed. Friends and family seem to love it, sort of a Wild Greens Pizza. I have a few recipes if anyone is interested.
My family has enjoyed eating the Burdock stems for years, in more of an omelet form that is fried in olive oil, we called it Cardoon.
