The dandelion is a dreaded pest, unless you're a child blowing on the dandelion puff balls. Before you dig up your dandelions, did you know that dandelions are an early source of food providing pollen and nectar for bees and pollinators? If you look close up at the flower, you'll see that it contains approximately 100 little flowers that bees feed on. Please show our bees appreciation. Don't dig up or spray your dandelions. Did you know that dandelion flowers, leaves and ro...ots are also a superfood? They're so high in vitamins and antioxidants that they put kale and spinach to shame. Half a cup of dandelion greens has more calcium than a glass of milk. The greens are also a good source of Vitamins C, A, K and potassium. Dandelions are reported to help support blood sugar, digestion, skin health, liver health and the immune system. The entire dandelion plant is edible: flower, leaves, and roots. The leaves are bitter resembling a spicy arugula. Add the fresh leaves to other salad greens or to a smoothie or saute them,. Garnish your salad with the flowers or dip them in tempura batter and fry them. Make tea with the dandelion roots. If you do plan to harvest your own greens, rather than buying them at the grocers, make sure to harvest from an area that is not treated with toxic herbicides. Avoid dandelions from public areas.
