tommie gorman Posted September 4, 2007 CID Share Posted September 4, 2007 I thought it was neat since so much is happening with chinese grown food these days. And you might eat better and tastier food too. So go find the good local grown stuff. Support your local farmer, and help yourself too. http://www.localharvest.org/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tdawnaz Posted September 6, 2007 CID Share Posted September 6, 2007 And I found I no longer need to go down town Kansas City to run through all that trraffic, they have one every saturday right here in town. If you go at the end of the day, you can get great deals from the farmers. The usual $1 a head lettuce can then go for as little as 10 heads for a $1. They do not want to pack it all up. And I have seen tubs of strawwberries get trashed also. They know it will do no good to repack and try to get them here the next day. So always go at the end of the day. You would be suprised at the deals. Glad you found one momma T. I like my stuff fresh also. the one i found looks like they take ur order and package it on a certain day and u pick it up a certain day http://www.localharvest.org/food-coops/M9144 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sequoia Posted September 8, 2007 CID Share Posted September 8, 2007 Birds always seem to have plenty of ammunition what ever the source. Coknuck here you have to plant poke weed.My grandmother was from the South .I bet it grew wild where she was raised too.She liked it so planted it on purpose. I was raised to eat what was on the table so I ate it growing up. Now I think I will leave eating a plant alone that has to be parboiled 3 times.Then only maybe the toxin is diluted enough not to make you sick.

coknuck Posted September 8, 2007 CID Share Posted September 8, 2007 From what I know of the people eating it around here is you only eat the young plants (no taller than12"). The toxins are not that strong at that time of their growth. But they still boil the plant 3 time getting rid of the water each time. I was reading some where it is useful for people who have HIV.
