💟Plants That Are {Safe} To Eat
💟Dandelions
This commonly weed depicted plant is not only easy to find, but it's stem, root, and flower can be eaten.💟Cattails
The brown tops of these plants, which grow in swamps and marshy areas, resemble a cigar or vegan hot dog. The entire plant is edible, but make sure you wash off all the mud first. Also, the fibrous stem, leaves, and roots are more palatable when cooked.💟 Pickerelweed
This plant is found in wetlands, ponds, lakes, and streams from North America to South America. It has glossy green leaves, which you can eat raw if they're young. If the leaves are older or thick, boil them first if possible. The seeds are edible, too — you can shake them into your hand and eat them raw, or you can roast them (which makes them taste a little better). In the summer, small violet flowers make this plant easy to identify.💟Sunflower (seeds)
Sunflower seeds are the ultimate tasty snack for foragers. Their seeds can be eaten raw or roasted, though you may find wild sunflower seeds to be smaller than what you find in grocery stores. Other members of the sunflower family, such as arrowleaf balsamroot, also have edible seeds. These are smaller than sunflowers but have similarly bright yellow petals.💟Broadleaf Plantain
It's found throughout the world, but you may even have broadleaf plantain in your backyard. It's as common as dandelions and equally as nutritious and hardy. The leaves are best when they're small and young, but you can eat the tougher older leaves, too — they'll just taste more bitter. The asparagus-looking offshoots are edible if you have the patience to shake out and eat the tiny seeds they contain.
💟Author's Note: Please make sure you correctly identify and prepare these plants before consumption, as well as doing your own research as well. I suggest getting a plant identifier app to help you make sure what you consume is edible.
