RE: What is it like living in Venezuela! (Food)

in #venezuelan7 years ago

Thank you for telling the world how it is there, please continue. I resteemed & followed.

Is it possible to organize with others to grow a little food? Also, many plants that most people consider weeds are edible and have good iron content, like stinging nettle, dock and dandelion. Hope this helps. Stay safe.

Hi, I translated the plant's names into spanish and wrote them down, I will try to see if i can get some seeds or plants to have them at home. Thanks so much for your help.

Maybe the Latin names would help?

Dandelion = Taraxacum officinale
Stringing nettle = Urtica dioica
Dock ("curly dock" or "yellow dock", there are several edible Rumex varieties)= Rumex crispus

I could send you seeds for these or other edibles if you think they'd actually get through to you. :)
