Meet the Plants | Dandelion Benefits & Uses

Dandelions are probably one of the first flowers children come to recognize. They’re distinct and easy to spot and it’s hard to forget the magic in blowing your first poof of wishes out into the world.

Creamy Stinging Nettle Soup (vegan & gluten-free)

Stinging nettle soup is by far one of the easiest ways to use this incredibly nutritious spring green. If you don’t throw your stinging nettles into a soup, pesto is another absolutely delicious way to go. They’re both dishes that you can throw practically anything in, especially green things in abundance. In making soup, you can quickly turn an overwhelming pile of garden goodness into something tasty and nourishing.
