I pick Chickeeed in the winter for salads. Makes great tacos too!

OMG -- I never thought of using it in a salad! That's brilliant. Next year I'll give it a try - I think it's all gone around here now.

I’m finding all kinds of plants on the farm. A lot of that’s are cool weather plants and are now going to seed.
I know this was a type of plantain, now I know which plantain it is.

Always wondered what these pretty flowers were, now I know. Common name is Texas Star. I like it.

The bitterweed is making its appearance now. I always thought nothing would eat it, but I’ve seen my sheep eat the flowers off.

Summer is in full swing. More weeds!
Sida Rhombifolia the sheep eat it, it’s edible for humans too. In some African countries it is used as a food. The leaves actually have antibiotic properties and can be made into a tincture by soaking in 80 proof vodka, or made into a tea. I got this stuff everywhere. The stems get tough and woody.

I’ve got lots of this too. Sheep won’t eat it. It’s tough, hard to even pull a wad of it to use for scrubbing green out of water buckets.

Antibiotic properties - good, and probably some pain reliever when steeped with that 80 proof vodka! 😁

Agree! 
pain relief
You guys had me feeling badly that YOUR phones had this and my "lesser?" Android didn't. 😖.
THEN....not to be left behind...I searched and found i DID have such available
just had to download the free app. It does work on insects/animals too. Yep, identified my goats! And by breed.👍
Now I know that crap is milkweed! Not wanted before or since I knew what it was🤣 something else I want to ID, gotta remember phone. Also did a few things I absolutely knew -- to make sure the app was correct.
well, confidence grew. It's a fun app🤣🤣🤣
