Eat your way to Dandelion Control

Sunday March 11, 2007
Spring is coming, and for many of us that means the lawn will be growing again and so will the dandelions. You could use weed killer to dispose of those little yellow nuisances, but David Beaulieu, our Landscaping Guide, says there is a better way -- Eat them! of course, it's a little more work than using weed killer, but you get free food out of the deal.

According to David: "... harvesting dandelion greens can save money. They're high in vitamins A and C, and iron. Why pay extra at the store to purchase foods with similar (or, often, inferior) nutritional value, when you have a free source in your yard"?

Read David's article to find out much more including how to make sure you get the best taste from your free food.
