One of the best wild edibles is mustard greens - I have to thank a friend eating green in the Hudson Valley for his great referral of these greens - so I am passing it on to you so more people are aware of this wonderful wild edible. Wild greens are more nutritious than cultivated. There are many types in the brassica family - the ones I like the best are 1/ garlic mustard
this forms a white flower - this is one of the first wild greens to emerge in the SPRING!
and 2/ the larged leaf mustard forming a "broccoli rabe" type head
these are prolific NOW! - we are picking them along with GARLIC SCAPES - and saute with olive oil for that garlic leafy green combo - add beans - chickpeas or cannelloni beans - for a fantastic and nutritious meal...
Learn more from this video. Once I start posting videos - I'll show you how to cook these Italian style as opposed to the boiling American style as Steve is doing here. Cute and informative videos from eat the weeds.com
