  • Learn how to identify, harvest and cook with wild plants. Wild plants are often seen as nothing more than weeds to be removed from the garden landscape, however, they are highly nutrient foods that in some cases have valuable medicinal benefits, so include these low cost wild plants in your backyard. When planning your garden in the spring, look to wild weeds as indicator of the type of soil you have and what you can grow most successfully in your own backyard. Learn how and what wild food and medicinal edibles to include in your edible landscape, a garden that will bring you close to nature and become just a bit more self reliant. Karen Stephenson is a wild food educator who also works as a professional writer and researcher. She spends a lot of her time educating people about wild food via her website, public speaking and through hosting "wild walks". She is passionate about proper nutrition, reading labels, eating healthy and companion gardening with weeds. She has studied herbal pharmacy and nutrition and has an honours BA in English. The presentation was recorded at Richters Herbs on March 8, 2015.

    I too garden around my weeds. I also mow around them too. I have a recipe collection using weeds as the star in dishes. Many recipes are found on Utube.

    There is a lady who was on a channel depression era cooking. She worked at a plant that made twinkies or something. She talked about walking home from working and picking dandelion leaves on the way home. She showed how to wash, and trim, and cook the greens. She has since passed away; but, with the UA-cam, her knowledge can be passed forward.

    Great subject and content but the audio quality is poor. I wonder if there is a UA-cam feature on the editor's side that might clean it up. A filter of some sort to normalize(?) the audio.

    Does Richter's Herbs have a website for ordering seeds for weeds? I live in Decherd, TN, USA

    Wow golfers these days are so spoiled and can't play over weeds. The golfers in the older days must have rocked. Green takes on a whole new meaning. New age golfers can't play on anything but green grass...kind of eye opening.

      Yes, you can. But please do not dig from the wild. In some areas fiddleheads are declining.

    Lambs quarters do not taste like spinach, they're much better.. That's like saying that all unusual meat tastes like chicken.. How bland a diet we would have if everything tasted the same..

    Why should we be so concerned about the chemicals when all farmers spray their crops and we eat what they harvest , doesn't those chemicals reside in the crops as well ? Just asking .

    Too much noise in the recording. After a minute I realize it's not interesting. And even if I want to listen the noise really bothers me.
