Homemade seasoned sea salt w cumin, paprika, oregano & basil & seed mix (wild flax & onion, commercial sesame).

Made wild dock crackers http://www.natureskills.com/wild_food_recipe.html Yum! Had you tasted them w diced onion & crumbled blue cheese, you'd be harvesting dock seed to grind into flour right about now. :O)

Can you spot 5 feral foods in this pic from yesterday's hike? They are (clockwise from upper left): wax currant, Boulder raspberry, pine needles, goldenrod & rock tripe.

Lory State Park overlooking Orchard Cove. You'd hike every trail you could manage here too, wouldn't you?

Garden survived the hail storm! Pic does show a trauma, tho: what 2 xpect if u discover most ur weeds r edible! :)

And inside that wild dock flour shortstack? (Dock flour ~1/5th called for flour. Also used yogurt instead of egg)

It has become a parade of feral food! This AMs wild food: dock flour added to grannys pancake recipe.

U knew I'd be lo-tech re this dock flour project, didn't you? Grinding them 1st in processor, then coffee grinder

I'm processing yellow dock flour this morning. Looking forward to preparing crackers from this feral food!

Wooo! I've cleaned 1/2 my dried wild dock seeds. Next? Why, grind flour & make crackers, of course! :O)

@InvasiveNotes Do u know what this is? Smells like goldenrod, teeny fleurs look ~goldenrod, but ck those leaves!
