Im excited for Spring foraging! Would be great to go upstate or somewhere away from the city so that we are not foraging food that could be eaten by local animals.

This is the raindate for the Urban Foraging that was scheduled for last weekend. Because of conflicts in people's schedules we can bring a few more people along for the fun. Register now! There are only a limited number of spaces available!

It's Salad Days for Weeds
from The Wall Street Journal May 27, 2009

On a recent Saturday, Washington, D.C., interior designer Morrigan Green stopped at a produce stand and picked up some dandelion greens. $9 a pound? No problem. Says Mr. Green: "These are as good a yuppie green as you can get."

Gardeners have long waged war against weeds but one organic weed expert cultivates them as a new form of delicacy. Anne-Marie Chaker reports.
As suburban homeowners commence their annual battle against weeds, more people are paying top dollar to eat them. The dandelion -- perhaps the most common weed of them all -- is seeing a huge surge in sales at grocery stores. Other long-scorned greens making the leap to the dinner table include purslane, lamb's quarters and stinging nettles, a skin-irritating plant that can be eaten safely after boiling. Read More.

I'm not gonna lie...I convinced my boyfriend to go along with this last spring. We did the vermicomposting for a few months, but it didn't work out too well for us. I happily gave the "condo" to a friend of mine recently to see what she could do with it. I wish the best of luck to anyone who tries it. Maybe I'll get the courage to do indoor composting again, but for now, I'm sticking with the outdoor kind :)
