In the 1930's the farmers here used to roast dandelion roots and grind them up to add to the coffee grounds to stitch out their supply.
I ate the greens before, but I like the flower tea idea.
When I was little I used to dig up the greens for my neighbor who loved to eat them. She would pay me a nickel for a bucket if I washed them too. Lol. Once she showed me how much a bucket amounted to after they were cooked and they didn’t even fill a plate.
I'm going to have to try this.
Me too. Let me know what you think!
sure.

Posted by sc62Day trip to the lake last weekend. I spent most of an afternoon next to this lily patch. It was such a nice, refreshing mini retreat.
