It's time to get your Knotweed on!! Take as much of this sour invasive as you want. The more you take, the better off you leave the environment!

I love them in Asian inspired cuisine or just sautéed with butter, salt, and pepper. #foraging #eatwild #organic #organicfood #nature #food #freefood #selfreliance #medicinal #freedom #indiana #nofilter #silvestre #spring #primavera

Where I'm from acorns fall from late September through November. These cute little ones in South Florida profound last week. I'm not sure what the species is, but I'm smitten!
