Edible plants in Arkansas part 2


Dandelions

  • Most people look at dandelions as a nuisance that mars green lawns. But dandelions are actually quite a nutritious food. All parts of a dandelion are edible, and the plant is high in calcium, potassium and vitamin A, according to the University of Arkansas, Division of Agriculture Cooperative Extension Service. You can eat the leaves raw, and some people make wine out of the flowers.
